I need to ship a 23 foot powerboat across the country, from New Hampshire

Oregon. The boat is on a trailer, but I would prefer to have it trucked or

Any ball park of what this might cost? If it's much over $2000 I will
probably just bag the idea. I have googled "boat transport", but I'm more
interested in "real world" experiences.


It's going to cost you considerably more than $2000 no matter how you
ship it - even towing it unless you do it yourself and even then, it's
going to be close.


Yep. That is a minimum 2,500 mile trip and both gasoline and diesel prices
are now rising.
