Boat season can vary based on where you\u2019re living, but the biggest months for boat shipping tend to span from April to September. Last year, uShip helped transport over 4,000 boats during that period in the United States. That\u2019s over 160 boats a week, every week, for six months straight. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Convenience and efficiency is key to making this happen.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Thanks to our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uship.com\/cost-to-ship\/boats\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">online boat shipping index<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">customers can get an idea of what they&#8217;ll pay for shipping before they start the booking process.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Unsurprisingly, our most active month was June, in which we shipped a total of 794 boats.

This seasonal shipping rush can create a logjam in the transport industry and cause heavy delays, making it difficult for many people to find a timely and affordable way to transport their boats.
