Yacht transport companies - recommendations?

[MYStargazer]

Or ones to avoid, maybe.

I'm looking to have a 32' mobo relocated by road from Spain to the UK.

Thanks.

Hi,

Not sure on your start / end locations but .....

We relocated our 33ft mobo from Hull uk to Port Ginesta, Barcelona Spain and used hainsworths transport from Bingley Yorkshire. They used the Bibao ferry to avoid France and its hassles.
We were very happy with service and price etc in 2008 and from the experience we had then would be pleased to recommend them.
I dont know where you are located but would suggest that the lower down Spain you are you may find the price increases significantly. We tried others including Dutch & Belgian companies but decided on Hainsworths.
My friend is currently awaiting to ship his 35ft mobo from Hull to Ginesta as well but awaits a date as Hainsworths are currently trying to sort out a return load for march / april. They often will try to get a return load from the south of france to make the trip. If you were near barcelona then a reasonable price might be available.

Is this the start of a good story perhaps ???

This was the subject of another recet thread - do a search on the forum, it should turn up lots of useful names etc. I used Etran marine back in Nov 09, but that was for a UK only - though they do Euro as well. Did a good job for a competitive price.

Hi

I used Tony Tugboat

just google him.

He does european runs, and was a good price and really helpful when he transported my Sealine, went well beyond the terms of his contract to help me, really good guy.
