Why are you not thinking about just motoring it down the Potomac and around to Solomons? It could be an adventure and avoid the hassles. Is the mast still up? Could you find a yard in Solomons who would do the work? Just asking. To me (with a 30-1) putting it on a truck for 100 miles seems not right.

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). 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 Just asking
