Default Any suggestions on how to transport a boat and trailer?

Fix it where it's at? There are carriers with at least 28' long
decks; they're used for industrial equipment more than for
automobiles. You may be looking at the wrong sorts of places.

I pondered fixing it in place but...
The seller has it at his summer home. I'm guessing from his asking price
that he just wants to make it disappear so I don't want to turn his front
yard into a something that will detract from his view of Vineyard Sound.

Do those 28' jobs have tiliting beds for roll-on/roll-off? What would I look
under to find someone with euipment like that?

Thanks
