Boat Transport Company

freedomheavyhaul

Moving a boat isn’t like hooking up a utility trailer and hitting the road. Whether you’re relocating a fishing vessel across state lines, delivering a yacht to a new owner, or transporting a sailboat to coastal waters, you need professionals who understand the weight, dimensions, and care required.

Freedom Heavy Haul specializes in boat transport across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. We handle everything from small recreational boats to large commercial vessels, matching each transport with the right trailer and experienced driver. Your boat arrives on time, intact, and ready for the water.

Why Experience Matters in Boat Transport

Boats present unique challenges. The hull shape, keel depth, and overall height require careful load planning. A 40-foot cabin cruiser needs different handling than a 25-foot center console. Masts, outriggers, and radar equipment add complexity.

Our drivers bring at least 5 years of heavy haul experience. They hold current licensing and carry adequate insurance. They know how to secure marine vessels properly, distribute weight across the trailer, and navigate height restrictions on highways.

Loading a boat incorrectly can damage the hull or stress the keel. Our operators use proper cradles, padding, and tie-down techniques specific to marine transport. This attention to detail prevents costly repairs and keeps your investment protected.

Choosing the Right Trailer for Your Boat

Different boats require different trailers. We select equipment based on your vessel’s size, weight, and configuration.

Flatbed trailers work well for smaller boats and personal watercraft. Center consoles, bay boats, and skiffs under 30 feet typically travel this way. Flatbeds offer easy loading and unloading at marinas and boat yards.

Step deck trailers accommodate larger boats with greater beam width or cabin height. The lower deck height helps with clearance issues, making step decks ideal for cruisers, sportfishing boats, and sailboats with masts removed. These trailers ride lower than flatbeds, reducing the risk of hitting overpasses.

RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers handle the biggest vessels. Yachts, large sportfishers, and commercial boats often exceed standard dimensions. RGN trailers detach at the front, allowing the boat to roll on from ground level. This method works best for vessels that would be too tall or heavy for standard loading.

Lowboy trailers serve a similar purpose for oversized marine equipment. When you’re moving a boat that pushes legal limits, lowboys keep the center of gravity low and maintain stability on the highway.

Our Boat Shipping Process

We start with an accurate quote. Tell us your boat’s make, model, length, beam, height, and weight. Include whether it’s on a trailer already or needs to be loaded at a dock or storage facility. We factor in pickup location, delivery destination, and any special requirements.

Once you approve the quote, we coordinate logistics. Our team arranges the right trailer, schedules an experienced driver, and plans the route. We handle permits if your boat qualifies as an oversized load. Most boats over 8.5 feet wide or 13.5 feet tall need special permits and possibly escort vehicles.

On transport day, the driver inspects your boat and documents its condition. Proper securing takes time. We use marine-grade straps, custom cradles, and protective padding. The goal is zero movement during transit.

Throughout the journey, you receive updates. Long-distance hauls take planning, especially when crossing multiple states. Our logistics team monitors progress and communicates any delays or route changes.
