Beetle Cat Sailboat
I purchased a 1962 wooden sailboat in Massachusettes and needed it transported to Houston, TX. I posted my transport request on Uship and Ray Johnson bid a very reasonable price to provide the transport. I asked a few clarifying questions of Ray via the uship website to make sure he was capable of handling the boat and then accepted his offer. Ray and I communicated via phone to work out the detai ...

Shiiping my new boat from NJ to Colrado
I had no idea how to get my new boat from the deal in NJ to here in Colorado. I found the uShip link on the same web site where I found the boat that i bought. The uShip experience was terrific. It was very easy to list my shipment and I landed a terrific shipper within one day. Tony and Kathy Hoffman delivered my boat to me and they were fantastic; I cannot say enough good things about them. ...

Shipped my sailboat from coast to coast.
I'll keep it short. Mine was not an easy task and I was not an experienced shipper. I dealt with 2 different Uship guys and they were both great. Really good people first off, but professional in every way.

Uship experience
Since this was my first time having anything shipped and having never used the site before, I made the mistake of giving and asking for phone numbers. I should have been more careful to look at the rules, etc. I received several very good bids and was pleased with the one I accepted.

j-29 San Diego-Detroit
My bid was to move a J-29 sailboat from San Diego to Detroit. Thomas' bid was competitive but not the lowest. After looking at his saftey record with USDOT I accepted the bid. The pick up went smoothly as did the drop off. Thomas made excellent time and my boat arrived in great shape.I highly recommend Thomas for anyone needing to transport a boat.

The uship experience was just great! It is really a great service getting shippers and transporters together.
|

uship is great for connecting... but
one misleading item about uship is they lead you to believe that the biggest part of the deposit you pay goes to the shipper. that is not true. for instance on a 2400 ship fee, the $33 fee AND the $250 fee all goes to uship. it is not like ebay where a small fraction goes to them.

Shipping a boat
The shipper I usually work with quoted me a price and then a week before he was to pick up my 26 foot sailboat boat he upped the price by 1400.00. I cancelled. When I cancelled he warned me, "Don't go with uShip". I had never heard of uShip before he said that. I have to disagree. I would never go with anything else but uShip now. I can read reviews of the shipper who I am working with from ...

Small Sailboat and trailer...WA to MS
Very pleased with the UShip process. I got my small sailboat and its trailer moved across country both loaded on a large flat bed trailer. Uship allowed me to shop for a fantastic rate, and view feedback on the provider before comitting to the shipment.
I will look to Uship for any of my transportation needs in the future.

Catalina shipped
I needed to have my 22' Catalina hauled from Ohio to SC. At close to 4000 lbs I didn't know of anyone who could tow it through the mountains. I had it picked up from the trailer repair place and hauled down the next day to my home in Charleston. It was a great experience and an unbeatable Value! I will definitely us him again if I need anything shipped.

Excellent Care Of Our Sailboat
Our sailboat has been in the family for more than 25 years. During that time, It has moved from one son to the next.
It is not a small boat, and needs careful attention during transporting.
When we moved it ourselves, from NY to NJ, we were full of doubts and nervous moments. But, we thought we were the only ones that would be extra careful.
Several years ago it left Manasquan, ...

Sailboat shipment
I bought a sail boat on eBay. Great price, but wrong location. I found uShip by a Google search and listed the item. I had a number of bids and accepted the one that most met my needs, though it was not the lowest bid.
I would use uShip again and have recommended it to others. The only issue I have is that uShip could explain the booking fee better.
Otherwise, count me as a satisfied cus ...

Moving Hereshof from NY toFL.
I picked Jim's bid because the price was fair and his experience in moving boats. Excellent communications. Pickup and delivery was right on time. His truck and trailer are modern, well suited for securely hauling a valuable boat and maintained in excellent condition. Jim seems to be a detail oriented person and it showed in loading the boat, securing it in transit and with delivery. Excellent se ...

Transport of sailboat from Lake Mead to Portland Oregon

26 Foot Sailboat w/trailer
A great experience with uShip. I bought a 26 foot sailboat on a trailer on Ebay and needed them moved from Central Texas to Portland Oregon. Over 2200 miles of blacktop in between. Using uShip allowed me to get bids down to what it would have cost me to go get the boat myself minus the stress of moving something that big (almost 7000 lbs). I had never used a shipping company, let alone even know w ...

Shipper delivered as promissed
I purchased a 19' sailboat located in Nashville, and needed to get it to Washington State, near the Canadian border. I located the shipper through UShip and the process went well, and as promissed. Despite some mechanical/transmission problems, the shipper did what was necessary to complete the shipment in a timely and very professional manner. The boat arrived in great shape and I would definit ...

Absolutely the best!!!!
Sonny and Rhonda have to be the nicest, most helpful, and caring people to do business with.
The communication was phenomenal with phone calls at each step of the way. They were as punctual as could be and even went the extra mile to offer to help me out as a glitch in the process unfolded.
I would highly recommend these guys and I will be recommending them to anyone I can.

Never moved a boat before...
My wife and I decided to buy a Nimble 24 sailboat. It's not a common boat and we concluded that we would buy one wherever it became available and have it moved to our home in Western Canada. We bought one in Florida.
Next I checked with a could of local trucking companies but found their prices to be prohibitively high. I was going to make the 8000 km round trip myself when, after searching "bo ...

The Best Moving Experience
Bo is one of those people who works safely, efficiently which erases our concerns of dealing online. We recommend him to anyone and will use him again. I have also sent letters to our Catalina Owners Association giving him the best recommendation I could give anyone.

This was my first experience moving a heavy sailboat as well as using uship. I initially tried contacting individual boat transporters but found that uShip is much more effective at doing this. Great service. Will use again!!

Sailboat move.
I have been trying to get my boat moved for months. Three commercial local services I tried wanted a fortune to haul my boat 72 miles.
I found u-ship and got many reasonable bids within hours of posting my add.
M&M moved my boat without hassle and at half the price of the locals. They showed up on time took great care of my property and it is now set up in my yard for a winter re-fitting.

RE Wayfarer from New Orleans to Washington State
Hello,
The seller of my boat had used uShip before so he gave my wife and I some things to look for in a shipper. Frank Hagwood filled all our requirements and Frank was everything we expected. Our boat came to us in perfect shape and Frank Hagwood walked through the checklist and no damage or missing equipment was noted.
If Frank Dagwood is an example of the caliber of people working with uShip ...

Shipping my boat
I needed to get a 39 sailboat from So. Carolina to California. The uShip process allowed me to get a lower bid, see lots of feedback on shippers, and get a sense of them from their communication with me and with each other during the bidding process. I was very pleased with my shipper and the process.

good experience shipping my boat
this is my 3rd boat and 3rd stack of new boat trailers towed by uship shippers. all were cost effective. will definitely use uship again and continue referring others on my web sites.

This was the second time that I have used uShip. Both times, the service providers that I selected were of the highest caliber and provided prompt on-time delivery. Next time I need something moved I will definitely contact uShip!

sailboat transport
I was looking to ship a trailerable sailtboat (25') from the upper Midwest to the gulf coast. I received a number of bids, many of which were reasonable. The shipper I chose, and who subsequently delivered the boat, was nothing short of excellent - I was completely satisfied and the transporter was completely professional. Uship is a boon for people looking for transport services - that's me - ...

Shipping a 37-Foot Sailboat from FL to CA
I recently transferred from Florida to California and, instead of selling the boat, decided to ship it across the country. This was something I had never done before and I didn't even know where to begin. Luckily, I look at Yachtworld.com all the time and U-ship had a link to the site so I thought I'd give it a try, as well as contact a few boat transport companies directly. At the end of the day, ...

I like uship.com
This is a great service. It came out about the same in cost as doing it ourselves but saved us days on the road. We purchased a boat from MD. I went out there to look at it, so we knew what we were getting. Then I arranged thru uship to get the boat hauled to New Mexico. It's a 21 ft sailboat with small outboard on its own trailer. Our shipper, autokraft, was fantastic. Would use them again. They ...

Great experience from start to finish shipping our boat.
24 foot trimaran on trailer. We probably selected Dream Time from similar bids because Susie seemed really nice even in the brief comments exchanged. We bought a boat in California and needed it shipped to Florida. They picked the boat up within 24 hours of it being available and had it available to me within 5 days. Considering what it would have cost using a commercial shipper, I figure this cos ...

Sailboat Move pleasant and professional
Mr. Lauer agreed to move my sailboat even though the conditions at the pick up location were less than optimal. Mr. Lauer encountered several problems at the pick up location such as the cradle the boat was sitting in fell apart when he tried to load it onto his trailer. After Mr. Lauer finally got the boat loaded, He also loaded some other equipment on his truck and delivered that at the same tim ...

Really good experience
I purchased a small boat from Ebay and had only seen pictures of it. Boat had to travel over 800 miles without my checking serviceablity of trailer or securing loose items personally. While I've towed boats and travel trailers many hundreds of miles, I've never hired anyone else to do the same job. They were able to answer all my(many) questions before making the deal.
While the cost was close ...

transporting our boat from NY to GA
My husband & I were making our way down the east coast to the Caribbean in out 25' sailboat. We kept running into bad weather so by the time we reached Montauk NY we had had enough. It was getting really cold & this fall seems to be unseasonably cold with more storms than usual. We started to look for shipper to take her south to Georgia. One of the shippers who couldn't do it told us about the ...

First time but probably not last time
UShip turned out to be an excellent way to get a sense of a fair price and learn a little more about the movers. While feedback from past moves was very helpful, just asking each of the movers who bid a few questions about experience, rig, and insurance coverage helped me make a more knowledgeable choice. I did not take the lowest bidder but I certainly think I paid a fair price, both for me and t ...

Yay!
Debbie was amazing. We'd been worried about how to get our boat to Ontario from Tennessee, and she came through for us with a very reasonable bid and excellent service. It was VERY worthwhile to use this service, and I can't recommend Debbie highly enough. She's a kind, genuine person who took extra care about everything. Super.

a great service provider
This is one for the books, not real sure I want to relive this experience, but out of respect for the service provider I will. I bought this boat sight unseen 700 miles from home. The seller was accurate on the boats description and I thought it was going to be a piece of cake how I lived to regret that thought.The boat wasn't on the trailer, as I thought it would be.The crane put it on the trail ...
