Hi all,
just bought a boat without a trailer this weekend, problem is the guy i bought it from wants it gone by next weekend

. i need to get it from north wexford down to waterford. it is a 16 ft v shape hull. would anyone be willing to rent me their boat trailer for a couple of hours (welcome to tag a long if you like) or put me i touch with someone who might be able to help. PM if you like. Thanks for your help lads.

There is a boat yard in kilmore quay,they might be able to help you,most people like me at this time of year have boats on trailers,so might be difficult to get one,maybe someone who has already moored,eddie...

I sold a boat earlier and the buyer sent it up the country using
http://www.handyhaulage.ie/ guys came, picked it up and dropped it off. Hundreds of haulers going home empty every day.

Just seen a add on done deal on boat extras I think or boat for sale it said boat transport any where in Ireland based in Tipperary. It might be worth a look.

I had the same problem at the start of the year and couldn't get a trailer or even rent one from a company ,so in the end I rented a car trailer that had a winch on it ,I then used tyres and loads a ratchet straps and the winch secured to the tow ring on the boat ,not ideal or strictly road legal but it done the job,luckily the guy I bought the boat off had a forklift to put it on the trailer for me ,it's an idea for ye if all else fails

Thanks a million lads, lots of great suggestions there! surely i can manage to make one of them work out for me. i would just love to have the boat home so i can start working on it before the season starts. thanks again for all your responses.
