Transport from UK to Netherlands

Hi everyone. I'd like to buy a secondhand Musto in the UK but I need to find some way of transporting it to me in the Netherlands.

Since I don't own a car and can't find a place to hire a car with towbar then I'm open all other suggestions.

Does anyone know of a logistics/freight company which could put one on the back of a truck?

How reasonable would it be to get the boat delivered as far as the ferry for me to pick up from this end?

Is there anyone coming over here (ie mainland) sometime soon and could tow an extra boat?

Obviously I'd pay for whatever costs are involved in getting it over here.

What other ways to you guys transport boats across to the mainland?

Regards,

Tristan.

I am off to Int 14 Europeans at the end of the month at Schvenigan, taking hull to Roterdam ferry. Have a space on top of my double trailer. Boat would have to get to me in Newcastle.

Alternativly we can put the boat on the ferry at Newcastle to Amsterdam I believe the cost would be around £300, you would need to collect from docks.

Contact me if you need anything sorting.

Chris.
