Boat transport -- Havant - Helston

[Trevethan]

Can anyone recommend a haulier to shift my new purchase -- 17 foot sailing dinghy from Havant to near Helston?

Dinghy is on a good road trailer (unsure if there is a lightboard) Problem is I am in Singapore and can't easiily do it myself!

Any suggestions please email at either nicholas.trevethan@reuters.com or nctrev@starhub.net.sg

Thanks in advance!

His articulated low-loader might be a bit over the top for a 17' dinghy on a trailer! If that proves to be the case then perhaps try http://www.sailboatdeliveries.com (no connection etc.).

Thanks for teh tips -- West Countr moved my 44 foot ketch from Exeter to London a few years back -- very happy with them. Will see how prices compare. -- boat is a Mother's day gift and quotes I have had from other hauliers £500 plus exceed value of the bloody thing. I could ship it to Singapore for about teh same price,, hmmm there's an idea......

cheers

You want a cabbie with a towbar, not a haulier

Try phoning Martin Heard of Gaffers & Luggers, Tregatreath Yacht Yard, Mylor. I'll PM you his mobile number.

According to my route planner it's a round trip of 482 miles for me from Plymouth... If you can't find anyone else, then I'd tow it back behind my car for 50p a mile....
