Question about trucking a sailboat

Hey I need a litle help. I am wondering if anyone could give me a rough round figure for what it would cost to truck a 28 foot sailboat from CA to NH. The boat is already crated and would just have to be lifted onto a flat bed. No fin keel 9 foot beam.

I have an option to restore and deliver it. But I have to figure out what it would cost to get it to me. I can see two options. I have a CDL so I could rent one. But one way rentals tend to be pretty high. Or I could just pay to have it proffesionally trucked. However, I don't know whata coast to coast would run me. Can any of you blow boaters help me out?

Thanks in advance
