Sailboat Transport from Key Largo, Florida to Ingleside, Texas

 
Yeehaw!  Load ‘em up n’ ship ‘em out!  Christine Transport had to shift gears from sandals and bathing suits in The Florida Keys to boots and cowboy hats in the Corpus Christi area in Texas.  We picked up a 31’ Elizabethan Sloop Sailboat in Key Largo, FL for transport and delivered it to Ingleside, TX.

Sailboat Safe & Secure in Transit from Florida to Texas.

Arriving in Key Largo, we secured the sailboat on our custom sailboat transport trailerdesigned specifically for safe, secure trailer with custom padded boat supports and tied down with ratcheting tie-down straps (with carpet pieces placed under the straps to protect the boat to prevent chaffing during transport).  This particular mast was secured at the side of the trailer – but they normally ride on top of the boat during transportation (the marina we picked up at did not have a safe way to place the mast on the top of the boat, so we transported it on the side).

Christine Transport With Another Happy Delivery in Texas!

Traveling through Texas (we are from Florida and even thought it was extra hot!), we made our boat delivery in Ingleside (just outside of Corpus Christi).  We really loved the scenery and surrounding areas, and were happy to bring another boat home safe and sound to another happy boat owner!


Another Successful Sailboat Delivery!
 
Here at Christine Transport, it is important to us that your boat arrive home safe and sound, no matter whom you chose to deliver your boat.  You may pay a little more for a professional transporter, but your boat will be insured and you will have legal recourse if any accidents happen.  If you would like to check up on your transporter, and research their legal transport status (you can request this legal transport information from any reputable boat transporter). Two things you will need to know to make sure your boat transporter is a legal transporter, you can request their Certificate of Insurance (which protects your boat) and you can request the transporter's DOT Authority. Christine Transport provides a copy of our commercial transport insurance with every boat transportation quote we provide and you can also find it on our boat transporter website's legal information page

We have fresh new transport equipment that is safe, reliable and ready to haul your boat!  For more information about our new ride, feel free to visit our previous article: Retiring The Boat Transporter Work Horse

Retiring The Boat Transporter Work Horse

It is true as the old saying goes “All good things must come to an end.” We are happy to have put in enough service to hang another transport truck on the wall for duty served. That is a total of 312,000 miles under the belt in successful transportation!

It is also true the old saying “He who rejects change is the architect of decay.” So along with this turn-around, Christine Transport has a nice brand new shiny truck that it is just itching to get broken in! We like to keep everything in tip-top shape here for when you need to transport your boat across country, across state lines or across the county – having dependable equipment is just another reassurance we offer so that your vessel will get there safe and sound. If parts, pieces, or entire sets of equipment need to be replaced, we’re on top of it. The best thing a transporter can offer is safe travel (hey, isn’t that what we do?), and you can’t have that with faulty or broken-down equipment. We work hard to keep all of our company parts running smoothly like a well-oiled machine.

Be sure that your baby gets there safe and sound, check up on your transporter (no matter whom you choose) and research their legal transport status (you can request this information from any reputable boat transporter). Two major things to make sure your transporter is a legal transporter, you can request their Certificate of Insurance (which protects your boat) and you can request their DOT Authority. Protect yourself and your boat – when you go with illegitimate transporters, you can end up with a damaged or even stolen boat on your hands with little legal power to do anything about it (for not choosing/researching a legitimate transporter). For more information on how to select the best boat transporter for you and protect your investment, check out our previous article: Avoid Being Victim of Illegal Boat Transporters, complete with full instructions and links on how to go about checking a transporter's DOT Authority.
