Shipping an Outboard
I found a 300hp Yamaha I'm interested in, it's a little north of Orlando. Shipping seems like the obvious choice over a 20 hour round trip pulling a trailer with a truck.
Is a regular hotshot shipping service the best way to go? Anyone have suggestions?

Is it crated or on a pallet?

Would likely be on a pallet.Originally Posted by MolliesMaster

If ask the seller to take a deposit, or some extra money to meet you half way. Should fit in a truck bed without a trailer.

I've got a camper shell I don't feel like taking off, 3 kids, and it's about to be hunting season. Time is at a premium, unfortunately.

I've got a buddy headed to Rock Hill this weekend out of Orlando.
I might can get it much closer to you quick like.

Do folks still use Uship?
I've moved boats, motors, etc in the past and never had an issue.
Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.

I used Uship to get a John boat from texas 2 years ago with no issues.
