He won the online auction for a cabin cruiser sitting four states away, and the seller made clear pickup was the buyer's problem, not theirs. A friend went through the same thing last year with a sailboat bought sight unseen, both of them learning the hard way that owning a boat and having it are two different things.
My crew handles the haul with our own truck and trailer, towing it door to door, with the oversize paperwork ours before the wheels move. A boat bought without its paperwork sorted can still be moved, details on the Oregon boat transport page.
