Boat & yacht transport across Europe · up to 8 m · up to 3,000 kg From your berth
to the Riviera.

We transport sports boats, day cruisers and small yachts up to 8 m in length and 3,000 kg — on our trailer or on your own. To winter storage, the yard, the dealer or your holiday waters: personally managed, carefully secured, fully documented.

Two ways

Your trailer or ours —
you decide.

Some owners have the right trailer but no tow vehicle, no time or no wish to drive 1,200 kilometres with a rig. Others have no trailer at all. We have a clear answer for both — with a fixed rate per kilometre and a single point of contact.

We don’t move freight.

We move your boat.

What we transport

From sports boats
to small yachts.

From open sports boats to day cruisers with a cabin: what matters is not brand or price, but dimensions and weight. Within our limits, every boat receives the same care.

Sports boats & bowriders

Open motorboats for water skiing, wakeboarding and quiet bays — the classic on a trailer.

Day cruisers & cabin boats

Boats with a cabin and superstructure. We check height, windscreens and arches long before the boat hits the road.

Small motor yachts

Motor yachts up to 8 m and 3,000 kg — with inboard, sterndrive or outboard.

Sailing boats

Small sailing and keel boats with the mast lowered — provided hull shape, keel and trailer match. We check this before every confirmation.

Classic wooden boats

Mahogany, varnish and chrome need more than straps and rollers. We treat them the way our sister company treats classic cars.

New & pre-owned boats

Deliveries after a purchase or sale — from the dealer, the yard or the previous owner straight to your berth.

The limits

Stated clearly, before you ask.

We would rather say no at the start than improvise at the end. These values apply to every boat we take on — without exception.

8.00 m
Length

Maximum boat length. Please include bathing platform, bow rail and outboard.

3,000 kg
Weight

Boat weight including engine, fuel and equipment. The trailer is not counted.

2.55 m
Beam

Legal maximum width on public roads without a special permit.

4.00 m
Height

Total height of boat and trailer above the road — the legal limit on public roads.

If your boat falls outside these values, we will tell you openly — not on the day of collection.

Care.

A boat is built for the water, not for the motorway. Every strap, every support and every check stop along the way serves one purpose: that your boat arrives exactly as it left.

Services

Everything between berth and destination.

Transport is the core. Around it, we take care of what owners would otherwise juggle over a weekend between slipway, winter storage and yard.

The process

Four steps
to your destination.

01

Enquiry

Boat type, dimensions, weight, pick-up and destination, preferred date — and whether your own trailer comes along. We reply personally within 24 hours.

02

Quote

You receive a clear price based on our rate per kilometre. Extras such as launching and any toll or ferry costs are listed transparently.

03

Collection

Joint visual inspection, handover report and photos. Then your boat is secured on the trailer and the rig is checked before departure.

04

Handover

At the destination: report, photos, signature — and, if you wish, your boat goes straight into the water at the slipway.

Preparation

How to prepare
your boat.

The better a boat is prepared, the smoother the transport. We go through these points with you beforehand anyway — here they are for reference.

On the boat

  • Secure loose itemsRemove cushions, fenders, lines, table and equipment from deck or stow them firmly below.
  • Fold down superstructureFold or remove bimini, sprayhood, antennas and folding arches for the journey.
  • Empty the tanksEmpty fuel, fresh water and holding tanks as far as possible — it saves weight and prevents leaks.
  • Engine & batteryOutboard or drive tilted up and secured, battery master switch off, hatches and windows closed.
  • Papers & keysHave boat papers, keys and, if needed, a letter of authority ready — and take valuables off board.

On your own trailer

  • Registration & inspectionThe trailer is registered, insured and has a valid roadworthiness inspection.
  • Tyres & brakesTyres with sufficient tread and not over-aged, overrun brake and handbrake in working order.
  • LightingRear lights, indicators and number plate light work — we check this together with you before departure.
  • How the boat sitsThe boat rests properly on keel rollers and supports that match its hull shape.
  • Permitted weightThe trailer’s gross weight rating covers boat, engine and equipment. If in doubt, we clarify this with you in advance.
Where we operate

From the North Sea
to the Adriatic.

We travel all over Europe — to home ports, winter storage, yards and holiday waters, whether on the IJsselmeer, Lake Garda or the Côte d’Azur.

Destinations outside the EU — such as Switzerland — require customs documents. We clarify which ones with you before confirming.

Our standard

Three things you can rely on.

Honest limits

8 metres, 3,000 kilograms. Anything beyond that we do not take on — rather than making it work somehow.

Complete documentation

Handover report and photos at collection and arrival. The condition of your boat is traceable at every point.

One point of contact

From the first message to the handover you speak with the same person — not with a dispatch desk.

The Royal Legacy family

Three brands.
One standard.

Same owner, same values, same care — for everything that drives, floats or has made history.
