[Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List]

If you have a LOT of patience it might not be a bad trip. You can possibly be 
trapped for days or maybe even a week or two at various stops along the way. Do 
keep in mind it is a lot of lee shore with harbors that have tremendously 
dangerous bars across them, so ducking in when it gets bad is not an option. I 
read about a trip from Baja that followed an old clipper route. They had 
something like a Caliber LRC 40 with good tankage and went about 2/3s of the 
way out to Hawaii in a big arc from Baja to Seattle.
Going to or near Hawaii avoids a lot of rocks and hard stuff.

For what it’s worth, a 44 foot boat is a lot of boat to truck.  
I’m not suggesting it can’t be done, but there can be complications with a boat 
that big.  My 42 was shipped by truck approximately 45 miles when I purchased 
her.  She needed a “double drop” trailer (or some comparable name) due to the 
height.  Although it was shipped on its winter cradle, an area of the hull 
where it sat on the forward cradle piece was damaged in transit (the other 
glass skin was cracked).  I had it repaired no problem, but it happened.  The 
trucking company had no issues on main highways but almost didn’t get through 
the tunnel on the yacht club road (we had to remove the stanchions).  I would 
not ship my boat by truck unless the alternatives are daunting.

Thanks all for the notes on the ideas to move Alethea from LA to Seattle. From 
what I understand of the history of this boat it is a SORC champion, and has 
been on long extended cruises offshore. I am comfortable with my skills to sail 
her offshore and she is currently suited for a 3-4 week trip in blue water. And 
I have folks that can help crew for an extended period to move her by sailing 
her to Seattle from LA.  I have been studying various seasonal patterns and 
July/August seems to be the most favorable for a deep water cruise sailing 1000 
miles or so WNW  then back to the ENE to the straits of Juan de Fuca… however 
this means waiting till next summer. I have had a lot of people “wave me off” 
of sailing north along the coast… everyone says it’s horrible and the trip 
takes 4-5 weeks usually… sailing south is fine (Seattle/LA), but the other 
direction, not so much. 

 

On the other hand I have only seen two companies that would be able to give me 
a quote for moving boat and mast ( approx. 60’ of mast and 44’+ of boat) via 
truck… I am contacting the trucking companies that you all fine people  have 
recommended on the list. This would let me get her up here sooner and start 
refitting for world cruising…(Yes I’d take a C on a world cruise ) 

 

Still would appreciate other ideas on sailing vs. trucking , contacts for 
trucking, and I appreciate all the input so far. This is one of the best owners

Hi All,

 

I am considering moving my recent purcahse from So Cal to Washington State. I 
have two options… 1) move it from So Cal next summer when the weather windows 
are more predictable and the weather milder by sailing it up (two weeks – NW 
route out of So Cal for a Week, then a NE course to Washington for about a 
week…LONG TACK)  OR

 

2) Move it by truck now and do some work during the winter…

 

So – If I choose 1) any thoughts on that and if 2) anyone know of a good 
trucking company that is reasonably priced

[T Sutton via CnC-List]

I’ll send another vote of support for trucking the boat and for Andrews 
Trucking.  I’ve used them twice and found the cost to be competitive and the 
expertise well worth it.  Their organizational skills may not be the best but 
their boat handling is.  We used them this summer to have a boat shipped from 
Rhode Island to Ontario and there were no issues. As Tom B says they were the 
original factory shippers so know the boats and when we were talking to the 
driver this summer he said he had just been to California recently so they go 
all over North America and will likely try to fit it in with some other 
shipments.  In our case this summer we got fit in last minute because they were 
dropping another boat off close to R.I so they slipped down and picked it up.

I used Andrews as well to move our 27 to North Carolina and to bring our 33 
back to Ontario. Both were on back hauls, when they were sending a truck empty 
to/from moving a boat. If you are flexible on dates it’s a great way save 
money. Ask Glen about this option.

Call Glen at Andrews Trucking and get his advice. (aka ATL Trucking).  
He moved a friends new purchase from Sodus NY to Buffalo last month.  
The rig was returning from a delivery to Ohio so you never know when 
they can optimize the sked to give you a schedule.  If your boat is a 
C it's probably not the first time they hauled it.

Jeral,  I’ve made 3 trips up the coast from So Cal to the Columbia. Each
time in early spring. Each trip took 4 weeks. We sailed when weather was
reasonable and stayed in marinas when bad. I cannot emphasize enough to
allow a lot of time to not sail when weather is poor.

Stus-List Re: decision help on moving a boat

[Marek Dziedzic]

Not sure if it is help, but..

There is a reasonable report on SBO from a guy who sailed his boat (I think it 
was a Catalina 34) from San Francisco to Vancouver Island. If I recall, about 
two years ago. It took him more than a month. He hopped along the coast, 
sailing only during the day and staying overnight in various harbours along the 
coast. He did it two-handed. As it turned out, he motored most of the way. You 
may want to check his report (e.g. here:

Hi All,

I am considering moving my recent purcahse from So Cal to Washington State. I 
have two options… 1) move it from So Cal next summer when the weather windows 
are more predictable and the weather milder by sailing it up (two weeks – NW 
route out of So Cal for a Week, then a NE course to Washington for about a 
week…LONG TACK)  OR

2) Move it by truck now and do some work during the winter…

So – If I choose 1) any thoughts on that and if 2) anyone know of a good 
trucking company that is reasonably priced


Thanks
