The nearest hull shop that could handle the repair sat forty miles from Waterbury, well past the range anyone wants to tow a cabin cruiser on a trailer that has only ever gone to the lake and back. That is a steady call out of here, a repair run too far for a weekend rig, alongside the sailboat owners bringing a boat home after a purchase closed three towns over.
My crew runs the boat hauling with our own truck, rated for the hull, door to door, with New Haven and Naugatuck on the same routes. Oversize paperwork rides with the driver, handled before the wheels turn. A boat bought without its paperwork sorted can still be moved, details on the Connecticut boat transport page.
