South West Boat Transport

Established in 2005, South West Boat Transport is a professional and reliable yacht and boat transport company offering expert boat moving services throughout the UK—including England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland—as well as across Europe, including France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, and beyond. As boat owners ourselves, we understand the importance of safe handling and strive to make the entire transport process smooth and stress-free. With extensive experience in boat haulage throughout virtually every European country, we handle all necessary paperwork, permits, escort vehicles for wide loads, and can also arrange customs clearance for boats moving in and out of the EU.

We coordinate closely with both loading and unloading points, keeping clients informed at every stage of the journey. Our Goods In Transit insurance covers up to £200,000, with options to extend if needed. Our friendly, professional drivers are highly experienced in transporting all types of motor cruisers and sailing yachts weighing 2,700 kilos and over, whether within the UK or to European destinations. We operate a modern fleet of Mercedes tractor units paired with air suspension boat trailers, ensuring your vessel receives a smooth, cushioned ride. Each trailer features adjustable supports tailored to fit a wide range of boats.

We serve both private and trade customers—including boat builders, marinas, and yacht brokers—and are proud of the long-standing relationships we’ve built within the industry. Regular assignments include collecting new boats from European manufacturers and transporting vessels to and from the Southampton Boat Show. With competitive pricing and a strong reputation for reliability, South West Boat Transport is your trusted partner for boat transport across the UK and Europe.
