transport information and companies

trucking information

 Boats must be properly prepped for trucking. Rigging or canvas that is not properly secured can do extensive damage to a boat. Crowley’s strongly recommends that you use a trucking company that specializes in boat transport and that you work directly with the trucking company rather than with a trucking broker. Make sure you have insurance that covers the boat during transport and that the trucking company is also properly insured.

Crowley's needs a minimum of 7 days’ notice to have the boat ready for trucking out. The trucking company must contact Crowley's 48 to 72 hours before arrival. We will contact you with an updated estimate once we inspect the boat and confirm the services needed. The work needs to be paid in full before the boat leaves the yard. All boat trailers should check into the office before entering the yard.
