Tugboat Shipping Services

Moving a tugboat is more than placing the vessel on a trailer and delivering it to its location. Like cruise hauling or other saltwater boat transport services, every boat move is planned around its size, weight, height and the restrictions of the route.

Steps in preparing tugboat shipping:

1. 1. The boat’s dimensions: The center console’s length, beam (width), and weight will determine the cost to ship the center console. It will also inform us of the most proper method to transport the center console.
   2. The address in which the center console will be picked up and dropped off. The number of miles the boat will be hauled will also contribute to the overall cost to transport a center console.
   3. When you will need the center console moved. The timeline in which you will need the center console transported is important. We recommend booking the transport weeks to even months in advance in order to ensure that your move happens in a timely fashion.

Tugboat Dimensions: Length, Beam, and Weight of Vessel

When it comes to tugboat shipping services, its size and weight will contribute to the overall cost to transport a tugboat. Before transport, we’ll need the exact measurements of your tugboat to figure out the best and safest way to transport it.

Tugboats usually range from 15 to 50 feet in length and can be anywhere from 8.5 to 24 feet wide. As the size of the tugboat increases, so does the price for moving it.

• Size and weight: Tugboats typically range from 15 to 50 feet in length and 8.5 to 24 feet in width. Larger boats generally cost more to move.
• Accurate measurements: We require the exact dimensions of your tugboat to select the safest and most suitable trailer. Our fleet includes trailers for boats of all sizes.
• State regulations: Different states have varying rules for oversized vehicles. Boats or trailers wider than 8.5 feet are usually classified as oversized, which can require: Special permits, specialized trailers and escort vehicles.

It’s also important to note that each state has different rules regarding oversized vehicles. These additional requirements can increase shipping costs, so accurate information upfront helps us plan your transport efficiently.
