At Palmetto Yacht Management, we've been hauling boats and yachts up and down the East Coast for 10 years now. I've been thinking about the keys to success for owner operators and would like to share my top 5:

In a perfect world, every trailer you backed up to would be the exact height for your truck and hitch combination! Unfortunately, we live in reality and every trailer is different.

At Palmetto Yacht Management, we have experience with GM, Ford and Dodge heavy duty trucks in hauling very large and expensive yachts up and down the East Coast.

This is the second in my series of reviewing the trucks we use to haul very large and expensive yachts up and down the East Coast.

As part of my guest blogging series for Double Coin Tires, I would like to share my evaluations of the various types of equipment we use. We tow very large and heavy boats up and down the East Coast, so we're talking heavy, wind dragging loads which cause our trucks to really WORK!

In my first blog post for Double Coin Tire, I introduced my company, Palmetto Yacht Management, and discussed our business . . . moving extremely large and valuable vessels (boats) along the East Coast! We currently run five trucks and seven custom built commercial boat trailers.

My name is Chris Hanna and I own Palmetto Yacht Management. I am in the business of moving extremely large and valuable vessels (boats) along the East Coast! We currently run five trucks and seven custom build commercial boat trailers.
