Moving 2005 38SS by truck

Good afternoon. Looking for information on trucking our 38SS. Besides arch and windscreen. What else needs to come off? Any advice or shared experience would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I believe your experience was done by our member Hans. Not the same model but I'm sure you might have to split the boat in half.

We shipped a 3607 last year. We did pay someone to get it ready. They used a very heavy duty tape over the hatches - not something I would have thought about.
