What is dock-to-shop boat transport service?

Dock-to-shop transport means we safely move your boat directly from the marina or dock to our repair facility. This eliminates the need for you to arrange towing or hauling separately.

Do you transport boats that are not running?

Yes, we transport non-running and disabled vessels. Whether the engine won’t start or the boat has mechanical issues, we handle safe pickup and delivery to our shop.

Is dock-to-shop transport safer than towing long distances?

Absolutely. Controlled transport reduces stress on the drivetrain, steering, and hull, especially for boats with known mechanical problems or safety concerns.

What types of boats can you transport?

We transport most recreational boats, including center consoles, cruisers, sailboats, and yachts, depending on size and access at the dock or marina.

Do you coordinate with marinas and harbor masters?

Yes, we coordinate directly with marinas, dock masters, and harbor authorities to ensure smooth scheduling, access approval, and safe vessel handling.

Is the boat insured during transport?

Yes, all dock-to-shop transport is performed with proper marine insurance coverage, giving you peace of mind during every step of the process.

Can transport be combined with repairs or maintenance services?

Definitely. Dock-to-shop transport is often combined with diagnostics, repairs, maintenance, or refit projects, saving you time and simplifying the entire service process.

Don't own a trailer? Engine won't start? We handle the entire logistics chain. We tow your vessel from its slip to the ramp, load it onto our commercial hydraulic trailer, and transport it to our facility for repair.

Details

Logistics Solved

From Your Slip
to Our Shop.

If your boat is broken, it can't move. We solve the logistics gap. We tow your vessel from the marina, load it onto our commercial trailer, and transport it to our secure facility for repair.

Water Recovery

If your engine is dead, you can't get to the ramp. We use our service vessel to side-tie or tow your boat safely from its slip to the nearest haul-out ramp.

No Trailer? No Problem.

Most owners of 25'+ boats don't own a trailer. We maintain a fleet of commercial, triple-axle hydraulic trailers that adjust to fit your specific hull deadrise perfectly.

Insured Hauling

Transporting large vessels requires commercial liability insurance and DOT compliance. Your vessel is fully insured from the moment we hook up the tow strap until it's in our shop.

The Transport Chain.

Seamless execution, zero stress.

Tow to Ramp

We navigate your vessel out of the marina using our work boat, communicating with the ramp master for a clear approach.

Haul Out

Our heavy-duty truck submerges the commercial trailer. We winch your boat on, securing the bow eye and setting the bunk guides.

Secure & Wash

We pressure wash the hull at the ramp to remove invasive species, strap down the stern, and lower antennas for clearance.

Transport

We tow the vessel to our secure, gated facility in Long Beach where major repairs can begin immediately on dry land.

Capable Fleet.

Heavy lifting for heavy vessels.

Common Questions

My boat is on a lift. Can you get it?

Yes. We can float the boat off your lift (if operational) or coordinate with a crane service if the lift is stuck, then tow it to the ramp.

Does the price include the return?

Transport quotes are typically "Round Trip" (Slip -> Shop -> Slip), but we can also quote one-way moves if you plan to launch elsewhere or sell the vessel.

Preparing Your Boat for Transport

A little preparation makes the trip from slip to shop smoother. Before pickup day, stow loose gear in the cabin and cockpit, and tell us about anything that stands tall above the hardtop or T-top. Items such as boat antennas are lowered at the ramp for road clearance, so let us know if any of yours are fixed in place or hard to fold.

It also helps to confirm the boat's length, weight and beam when you ask for a quote. Our trailers handle boats up to 36 feet, up to 18,000 lbs and a beam up to 10' 6". If the boat is on a lift, tell us whether the lift works, since we can float the boat off or coordinate a crane if the lift is stuck. At the ramp we pressure wash the hull to remove invasive species before the boat goes on the road.
