Steve,
Make sure all your hatches and opening windows are dogged down and locked. I remember travelling through New Brunswick in the rain and seeing a large sailboat on a flatbed travelling the other way. The front hatch was open to the stops and funneling all that rain right into the cabin. Rick Taillieu Nemesis '75 C&C 25 #371 Shearwater Yacht Club Halifax, NS.

I'm loading her on a truck next Thursday and we're saying goodbye to Lake Ontario. It's been nice but we've done the Thousand Islands two years in a row and really want to get up to the North Channel. I've never trucked a boat before. Anyone have some tips to share? I'm bringing her to a marina with a travel lift. They are taking the mast down and hauling. The trucking co is doing the loading, including the folded cradle. From there they're driving up to Midland to Bay Moorings Marina where their travel lift will bring her down and onto the cradle. The trucking co told me to keep my cradle pads in the locker so that they can get at them when they are there, but aside from that, no other tips. I'm sure there are things I'm not considering! Anyone have any recommendations or things to consider when trucking a boat? Mast lays down alongside the boat on their trailer, not on deck. I'm thinking about removing my stanchions and lifelines just because. Anyone here at Bay Moorings Marina in Midland? That's where we'll be landing. Would be nice to know if any other listers are around. Would be great to have a brain to pick about anchorages and gotchas in the area.
