Help! I need a boat. Hi all, I'm about to return to 125 sailing after a 30 yr absence. I have seen a couple of boats in QLD that look like they fit my purchase criteria. Does anyone have any knowledge of the best way to get a boat from QLD to Adelaide, given that it would be impracticable for me to "drive". Anyone know of any companies I could contact, approx costs ect. Any help appreciated. Martin Hughes 21-Oct-2009    Edit    Delete

Re: Help! I need a boat. The 125 Nationals are being held in Adelaide (Henley) at Xmas, so is the Impulse class (Henley), laser (Adelaide) and Heron. Try finding out who is going from Brisbane and has a double trailer? monz 26-Oct-2009    Edit    Delete

Re: Help! I need a boat. Hmmmmm....fly it over? Does it have wings? Surely freighting something that size would cost more than the boat? Martin Hughes 4-Nov-2009    Edit    Delete

Re: Help! I need a boat. My 125 Mk2 is sailing at the Nationals (Nick Major skippering with my wife Bianca crewing, I am sailing an Impulse) Mk2 is sort of for sale after the Nationals but may be too expensive for you.... Mk2 will be 18mths old after the Nationals, I suppose I would want $11,500 including the trolley. It's a very fast boat, there will be five others like it at the Nationals.
