With such a short haul, I don't know if this
would be worth the effort. But when we brought
Alera from Niagara on the Lake to Seattle, Rob
MacLachlan, of South Shore Yachts who
de-commissioned her for transport, suggested we
cover the hull with a layer ofJoy dish soap. We
did and when she got here we washed it off and it
took the road grit and salt with it.

Hi all,
The excellent advise a couple weeks ago on
replacing standing rigging led us down a rabbit
hole. Long story short, we are now getting ready
to have our 25, Sweet Chariot, moved from
Washington DC to Solomons MD on the Chesapeake.
A much longer drive, but better sailing and boat yard options.
We've never had her moved by trailer, and I'm
curious what we should expect of the hauler. One
says we should have the boat fully prepped with
mast secured to deck. Another said they prefer
to do it all themselves (which I also prefer).Â
Any tips for getting her ready for a road trip
or dealing with boat haulers? We've checked with
a few people in the area, but any recommendations would be appreciated as well!
Thanks!
Stephen
