I keep getting excuses from guys like their trailer is broke or their shoe is untied. do any of you guys know anybody in jersey or mass that is a reputable hauler that can get my baby

62,
I found a guy by the name of Cliff Carlton his hauling company is BCR transport, and his phone number is/was 410-459-1143
He hauled my 25 FBSF from Cape Cod to Oshkosh Wisconsin for about $500 less than anyone else I checked with. His stuff looked top notch and he was very proffesional, sent me all his credentials for insurance and the like, no complaints, might be worth a look.
Best to ya,
Mark

Ask for Dana at J&J Marine in Somerset Mass. Good guy, owns the rig and fair price...800.838.3996
Also call Joule Yacht Transport. They are nationwide but have a storage yard in Flemington NJ where they change loads. They moved a bunch of molds and a hull I designed last year...on time and on budget. 800.237.0727
Good luck.

62,
I had Niemic Marine from New Bedford Mass move my 66 from Conn. to Mass. Brad and Marty Niemic are great guys and treat you right.
Phone # is 508-997-7390.
The driver they have was first rate and put my boat into a real tight spot like it was nothing.

62 31,
Congrads, I have the same 62 31 Express.
Did you think about just cruising her all the way home. It's all downhill so you'll save on fuel.
Okay seriously, if she is in good running condition you can have a great experience with your new boat for a similiar cost of hauling it.
Just a thought.
