Do remember to sort out insurance, as under NZ law carriers are only liable to a maximum of $1500. I'm sure your boat is worth much more than that.

thanks Walu but ive decided to go and get it myself - makes for a lot of driving but it will work out significantly cheaper!

This time next week the new boat will be parked on my drive Tongue
