The boat is a 24ft sunseeker mexico, on a trailer with new wheels and recently serviced. Weight of full train c.3 tonnes
We are keen to get her to Barcelona by Saturday and have just been let down by someone who was going to depart on Thursday
Looking to pay c.£2,000 for the job

Does anyone have any ideas?
Annoyingly the Friday ferry to Santander is full

It would be surprising if you found anybody at such short notice to do this, it is peak time of year for the Med transporters. Given your time constraints, why not just do it yourself? If no ferry availability, then take the tunnel and drive down through France. Would take a couple of days but you'd still hit your deadline.
 
There is a ferry going from Portsmouth to Bilbao at 11:45 Tomorrow - arrives Thursday in Bilbao at 12:45 - if thats any help.
Just checked - not full.
A car/trailer should get from Bilbao to Barcelona in about 7 hours - virtually all motorway.
 
thanks for these, am ringing around but so far little sucess

Have to say, most promising seems to be shiply.com
has anyone tried this? clever little site
 
Shiply is where I got 3d freight above. Was a bit peeved (for the driver) they (shiply)took £30 of the price of £150 for a LR defender from Nottingham to Hamble on a truck! He said to me that he had taken boats to Med before but appreciate he might be too expensive or unavailable!!
