Re: 60 ft boat freight to NZ
Todd Pierce,
Have you contacted Dockwise, floating and drive on submersible ship that goes all over the world, I think they are based in Ft Lauderdale, Florida. Do a google search for the contact info. I know they go to Med, up and down the east coast of the United States and Western Pacific (Fiji). Some deck loading ships require a cradle or a trailer, I had my 31 Bertram deck loaded to St. Thomas USVI out of the Port West Palm Beach, The shipping company wanted $2,400 just to build a iron cradle basically 6 jack stands welded together, I bought a used 3 Axle 15,000 lb rated bunk trailer for $2,000. The guy I sold the boat to planned to sell the trailer after the boat made it to USVI.

Re: 60 ft boat freight to NZ
Pete, thanks for that , they have a ship leaving in december that will drop it in NZ for $96500 usd water to water, so that just leaves me with the problem of moving it from New York to Florida, i have asked here for some in put,( but had no info as yet ) to see if such a trip is even doable that late in the season as i have know idea about the weather in November, i do know its a big bit of ocean and its coming into winter so i suspect it could be a bit tricky
