Motor Boat transport

[hartcjhart]

Hi peeps,I have just had some sad news that my best friend has died,he was going to captain a future boat purchase from Holland to Gt Yarmouth.
Does anyone have a roughish estimate for bringing it over by lorry, or point me in the direction of a good delivery skipper

TIA Craig

Very sorry for your loss.

What sort of boat is it and when are you thinking it will need bringing over? The N. Sea during the winter months can be a little unpleasant at times but with planning it is doable if you want to bring it across on its own bum. We are Broads based and have done Holland a couple of times. If you want a professional delivery skipper then Halcyon is a member on here https://www.halcyonyachts.com/

As for road transport costs I would be guesstimating - 12m boats from N. Ireland to East Anglia have cost us sub-£2k but I suspect Holland may be a bit more given the longer ferry passage. Tico of this parish has just done it so will have a far better idea what the costs are http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?531036-We-did-it!
