Boat Transport in Charleston & the Lowcountry
Ramp to marina, marina to storage, or storage to your driveway, we move boats on and off the trailer and down the road without the drama.
Around here, half the driveways have a boat in them. When one needs to move and the trailer won't cut it, a breakdown, a haul-out, an inoperable rig, or just a bigger boat than your truck can pull, that's our call.
We've hauled plenty of boats to and from the ramps and marinas around Edisto, Kiawah, Wadmalaw, and Charleston. We know the ramps, the tides, and the tight turns.

Boats are half the driveways around here
The Lowcountry runs on water, and sometimes a boat needs to move without going in it. Maybe your tow vehicle broke down, or you don't have a trailer, or the boat's just bigger than your truck can pull. We handle moves to storage, hauls when you're buying or selling, and everything in between. We know the ramps and tides around Edisto, Kiawah, Wadmalaw, and the other sea islands.
Season in, season out
We're here for your boat all year: spring launch when the weather warms up, fall haul-out when it cools down, and off-season storage runs. When hurricane season hits, everyone calls at once to move boats inland, book early for storm moves and we'll get you tucked away in time.

How a boat move works
Give us the details. Tell us the length, beam, and weight if you know them, the trailer situation, and both locations. Sending a few photos helps a lot. We'll confirm we have the right setup for your boat and give you a straight quote. No surprises.
Boats we move
Center consoles, bay boats, jon boats, skiffs, and small cruisers. Pontoons need extra care on width, and we plan for it. Sailboats depend on mast and height, so ask about yours. Jet skis and PWCs ride on their trailers. We handle boats up to about 30 feet. Every boat type loads a little differently, and good boat hauling means planning for exactly that before the truck shows up.
Marina, dry stack, and buying a boat
We coordinate pickup windows with marina and dry-stack staff so your boat's ready when the truck arrives. And buying a boat is the classic call: the seller's in another town, you don't have a trailer yet, and the boat needs to come home. Sea trial done, survey done? Call us. We pick it up and deliver it to your driveway or slip area this week.

Charleston Boat Transport FAQ
Can you move my boat if it's not on a trailer?
Often, yes, we can load many boats onto our rollback or work with your trailer. Send us the length, beam, and weight if you know it, and a photo, and we'll tell you the best way to move it.
Do you haul to and from the ramps and marinas?
Yes. We regularly move boats around the Edisto, Kiawah, Wadmalaw, and Charleston ramps and marinas. We know the access and the tides.
How much does boat transport cost?
It comes down to size, distance, and how it loads. We'll give you a straight quote up front, no surprises when we show up.
Can you move a sailboat or a boat with a tall console?
It depends on the height and clearances, some boats are just too tall for road travel. Send us photos and the measurements, and we'll tell you straight if it's something we can move safely or beyond what we do.
Do you move boats ahead of hurricanes?
Yes. When a storm's coming, demand spikes and everyone calls at once, so book your move as early as you can. We'll work the list in order and be honest about what we can fit in before the weather turns.
