Types of Denver, CO Boat Transport Services
We offer boat shipping services to and from Denver, CO. The state requires that DOT regulations be followed when transporting a boat. Among these are the following rules:
- Boats wider than 8'6" require a state permit.
- Loads larger than 17' must be applied for at least one week before transport.
- Boats wider than 11' require an escort.

Boat transport
We transport boats and ships in addition to other types of watercraft. Additionally, we offer full-service moving, roll-on/roll-off, interstate shipping, and international yacht transfer.
Powerboat shipping

Shipping your powerboat can be difficult because the overall height must be considered when planning the route. Different states may have varying boat transport laws and regulations. In general, boats up to 13'6" in the mid-Atlantic and northeast states, and 14' in others, are permitted; boats taller than this require permits and pole cars.
The bottom of your vessel must be free of grasses and plants before transportation since certain jurisdictions have laws prohibiting the entry of plants from other states.
Sailboat Transport
Sailboat shipping is a complicated process that should only be handled by professionals. All lights, winches, wind indicators, and rigging must be removed before hauling off your sailboat. Don't connect your mast to the boat because it has a place on transport trailers.
Yacht shipping
Yachts typically weigh at least 40,000 pounds and measure more than 14 feet wide and 14 feet tall. In comparison to smaller vessels, yacht transport is slightly different.
Given our company's experience moving large vessels, you can be assured that we will ship your boat efficiently.

Small boat transport
Small boats can be transported on land, on their bottoms, on trailers, and even on yacht transport ships.
International Boat Shipping
International shipping of a boat or yacht requires more effort than domestic shipping. Obtaining all necessary documents is critical for customs clearance.
You can rely on our company's customs experts to help you navigate this process.
Container Boat Shipping
Your boat can be shipped overseas as freight on a cargo ship.

How to Prepare a Boat for Shipping
Before handing over your boat to the shipping company, ensure it has been adequately prepared to avoid damage during transit. Most companies will allow you to prepare your boat; therefore, any damage caused by improper preparation is your responsibility. The preparation requires little background knowledge or technical proficiency, so anyone can do it.
Here are some things you can do to get your boat ready for transit.
- Propellers, anchors, flagpoles, antennae, electronics, and valuables should all be removed and stored securely.
- Cabinets and cabins should be locked. Lock up every hatch, window, and door.
- You may use linseed oil to coat your wooden boat to keep it from drying out, but it might lead to dirt buildup while on the road.
- Drain each tank. Drain plugs on the hull and remove water and fuel. Draining fluids from pumps, water systems, and air conditioners is crucial.
- Make sure your boat is measured precisely. Look here for information on measuring your boat.
- Remove the anchors from the deck.
