Detroit to Phoenix

Postby Sadey » April 14th, 2021, 7:58 am

I have a friend who wants to buy a 1986 32’ Montego in Detroit and have it shipped to Phoenix. Any suggestions on who to use? The boat does not come with a trailer.
Thank you for the help!

a 32 Montego is a pretty big boat. It will require permits as it is to wide to trailer. I would consider a dedicated boat transporter to price this for them.

These guys get some great recommendations: https://www.shipfm.com/ They also ship coast-to-coast and top to bottom.

Ideally you want to find someone who can work the timing so they're not dead-heading one way or the other. If you're flexible on schedule and work with them that could save you some big money.
