[QUOTE="JonoB, post: 7989, member: 509"] Hi guys, In the second week of December this year I'm required to move house from the mighty Manawatu down to Otago for work. I have two hives that I'm rather fond of, and preferably I'd love to bring them with me. Has anyone got any thoughts/pearls of wisdom regarding the ferry and other transport that time of year? A few experienced beeks I've talked to seem horrified by the thought of trying to move them over that period, worried they'll cook on the boat due to such high activity levels. I can't leave them here until the winter unfortunately. Am I better off just selling them off up here then starting fresh down south? Hugely appreciate any insights! [/QUOTE]
