Talk to Sailboats Northeast: https://www.sneyachts.com Bought a boat far away and need to get it home? Here are the three ways to do it: (1) sail it yourself, (2) truck/haul it, or (3) hire a professional delivery crew. We break down the real-world tradeoffs—time, cost, wear-and-tear, oversize hauling issues, and the hidden yard fees (cranes, unstepping the mast, launch/haul). We also share realistic delivery cost ranges and why a professional delivery can double as a valuable “shake-down” that teaches you the boat. 00:00 - Bought a Boat Far Away (Now What?) 00:17 - Truck/Haul It (When It Makes Sense) 01:11 - Professional Delivery Crew #sailing #sailboat #sailor
