shipping boat from SA to NT

Lyndon, have you tried the train? Don't know the costs but it's got to be comparable, if not cheaper, than a truck I would have thought. Failing that, ask at one of the boat sales places that sells boats made in SA & Vic.

Cheers

Not keen on the train unless it's well covered up or in a container, why not ring Territory Marine or Boatland Winnellie to see who brings up there boats.

I've known ABC Trasport from when they only had 2 prime movers and did community runs around Alice. They're a good mob and I've used them for lots of smaller stuff. As for 6m of boat and trailer, if it was me I'd give 'em a call 1st.

I know this won't help you but, when I was in Darwin in the early 80's we (the RAAF Ski club) bought a boat from Gilflite boats in Melbourne. Bit of wrangling and it arrived in Darwin in the back of a C130 ;-))

If you manage to find someone prepared to transport your boat, expect to pay top price SA - NT. Pity you weren't doing it the other way NT-SA as 'back loading' is generally quite a bit cheaper. Check with N.T.F.S. LINK
