What to Know About Transporting a Power Boat
One of the biggest issues to deal with when shipping power boats has to do with the height of the boat. The height needs to be known when working on a quote, so proper route can be planned, and the correct permits can be obtained. In general, you are allowed 13'6"in the northern east coast states, while 14' is permitted in other states. If your power boat exceeds these limits, you will need to have a pole car travel with you. Also, due to height and weight requirements, you may have to remove certain parts of your boat before transport, such as antennas, outriggers, propellers, and other parts. When you trust the professionals at Nationwide Boat Shipping, you never have to worry about whether your power boat is in compliance with state laws. We will take care of obtaining all permits and escorts that are needed during the transport of your power boat.
