I read the message of Scott Lynds 
I think i have an interesting answer for him

There is an Alberg 30 for sale with a truck on which the boat is put on.
This truck has been bought used and converted specifically for transportation of the boat.
This has been used during 4 or five years to bring an Alberg 30 from Quebec city (Canada) to Florida and back. 

The boat has a new Yanmar 27 that has been used for about 50 hours,
Now, thit boat is on the truck since 3 ou 4 years, unused.
