Dale's take on Merritt Island

Some Merritt Island boats need to move because their owner sold to a buyer counties away with no truck rated for the hull. Others got bought remotely and need bringing home from a marina or dealer yard too far to trailer yourself.

My crew hauls the vessel door to door with our truck and trailer, boat hauling from Merritt Island driveways and marina slips. Jobs in North Merritt Island often stack with a Merritt Island call, so the tow schedule moves fast. A boat bought without its paperwork sorted can still be moved, details on the Florida boat hauling page.

What's covered

What boat transport covers in Merritt Island

Boat transport in Merritt Island means moving your vessel safely from one location to another, whether you've just bought a boat and need delivery, you're relocating your sailboat within Florida, or you need seasonal transport to storage. We handle all sizes and types of vessels. Most jobs in this area fall into a few patterns: someone buys a boat at a dealer and needs it shipped to their dock, a marina customer moves their boat to a repair yard, or an owner relocates inland or to another part of the state. We show up with the right equipment for your boat's size and dimensions.

As boat movers operating in this region, we run regular routes through Merritt Island, and the same route runs through Port St. John and Sharpes, so we can coordinate multiple deliveries efficiently. Our fleet handles sailboats, cruisers, and smaller vessels with equal care. Whether your boat sits on a trailer or needs to be hauled from the water, we manage the full transportation process. Each boat gets measured for dimension requirements before transit begins, and we confirm your destination before we load. The service steps below show how scheduling works.

How boat hauling in Merritt Island works

  1. 1

    Send photos, dimensions, and both ZIP codes

    Hull length, beam, and height, both the pickup ZIP in Merritt Island and the drop-off. Photos of any tight access, gate widths, or slope get the quote right the first time.

  2. 2

    Get a flat quote the same day

    One number covers loading, transport, oversize permits, fuel, and door-to-door delivery. No hourly, no fuel surcharges added later at the curb.

  3. 3

    Schedule the pickup window in Merritt Island

    We confirm the date and a two- to four-hour arrival window the day before. The driver calls when the truck is an hour out so nobody stands around waiting.

  4. 4

    Load, lash, photograph, and transport

    The crew rigs the boat to the trailer, checks tie-downs and lights, and photographs the load before the wheels turn. Oversize permits, if needed, are already in hand.

  5. 5

    Delivery and photos at the drop

    At the drop the boat comes off the trailer under our own hands. You get the same photo record at delivery.

    Insurance runs load-to-unload. Certificate of coverage available before booking, not after something goes wrong.

The starting number at the top of this page is real. Distance, hull size, and season move it from there. Full ranges and the per-mile rule live on the Florida boat hauling pricing section.

Common questions about Merritt Island boat transport

How much does boat hauling cost in Merritt Island?
There is no flat quote until we see the boat and the route. The rates above show how short runs and long runs price differently. Send photos and both ZIP codes and the number comes back before we book.
How much is per mile to transport a boat?
There is no flat per-mile number. Loading and rigging cost the same whether the trip is short or long, so short runs cost more per mile than long ones. The rates above already account for that curve.
Can you move a 40 ft boat?
Yes, 40 ft is well within our range. Big hulls need a permit and a routing plan; both are our job, not yours. Add a couple weeks to the schedule and it works.
Are you the actual hauler or a broker?
Direct carrier, not a broker. The person who quotes is the person responsible. Your boat never gets resold to whichever driver bids lowest.
Is my boat insured during transport?
Yes, from load to unload it rides on our policy. A certificate of insurance is available before you book, not after. We photograph the boat at loading and at delivery for the record.
Do I need a permit to move my boat, and who handles it?
Only wide loads need a permit, and we pull every one before the truck rolls. You do nothing on that front. The quote already includes it.
How far in advance should I book boat hauling in Merritt Island?
Two weeks is a good target. Peak season, more like three. Oversize hulls need extra runway to line up the trailer and pull the permit.
