On the day

The next step...

Simply fill out our online contact form which we will receive and send you a price.  Once you have agreed to this, we will book the dates in.  

With all of the information we will carry out all of the necessary paperwork and arrive on time on the day of the move. 

Cranes/ lifts

We normally leave the arrangement and payment of any cranes or Marina lifts to the owner.  This arrangement service can be provided for a small fee, as getting both ends and all of the transport to tie up can sometimes be the most frustrating part of arranging transport!  The whole package of lifting and transport will then be arranged and paid for by us, and payment for all services can be made to us, making easy work of arranging the day.

On the day

You are more than welcome to be there on the day but it is not a necessity. We will ensure that your boat is signed for on our delivery note and any keys are collected and again signed for at the destination. We also check over the boat to ensure that it is safe to travel and that all fenders and warps are secured inside.

Note:  Due to the fact that some marinas are located down small roads, many of these are lined with trees and bushes.  We have had occasions where the hull (especially dark blue hulls) get marked by overhanging bush or tree branches.  We would like to note that although this cannot be avoided in some cases, we make every effort to avoid such things.   The branch markings do just rub off however, and do not damage the hull in any way.  We must however point out that we cannot accept liability for these marks.

Shrink wrapping will eliminate this if you are worried about it.

 Insurance

We have  a specialist goods in transit policy that covers our service on an 'all risks' basis.  This is the most comprehensive cover that can be applied.  The standard value that we cover to is £300,000.  If your boat is over this value, a very small additional premium will be required to ensure full cover.  It is still advisable to have full comprehensive insurance on your craft whilst in transit.

Boats travelling to Spain will require their policy document to be translated into Spanish.  This will be provided by your insurer.  The policy will be required to be shown to the 'capitanerie' or harbour master before the boat will be launched into the water.

Payment

For all boat moves we will issue a pro-forma invoice, and require payment before the day. Payment should be made by a cheque or internet banking transfer (Funds must be cleared before the day). If arranged, we may accept cash when we arrive at the collection point. Invoices / Receipts will be sent to you if paid prior or on the receipt of cash on the day.  We do not have card facilities at the moment.

 And after

We really value your feedback.  This will enable us to keep our services tailored to your needs. We would appreciate comments for the website too, so if we carry out transport for you, we would like to hear from you.  We can then post photos of your boat or yacht being transported and it will give other people information on the service that we provide.  Send us a note by clicking here.
