Hi all,
Anyone know of a transport company that will transport my Dinghy from Perth WA to Darwin?
Total length 4.5m
Width 2.0m
Hieght 2.0m
weight 250kg
I have rang a few people but have had some rediculus quotes 1 being $3500.
I was looking around the $800 to $1000 mark.
Thanks in advance
Parksy

Can we just take the warning stickers off everything and let natural selection take its place, I mean if its spinning fast dont put your fingers in it..... Its not hard

Try Jolly and sons or WA freight group. They bring freight up for my work and see they often have boats in their yard. 0437 698939. No idea what their prices are like.

Re: Boat transport
Hi parksy, your gonna struggle to get around that rate unfortunately freight to darwin is typically pretty pricey. A couple freight companys I use are openica transport and aquatic boat transport, both have websites, aquatic sometimes move boats to perth for telwater (quintrex,stacer ,savage) might get lucky with backload back from perth
