I need to move a battleship from Rens to Balginia. I am not sure, however, what the established payments and collaterals are. I'm guessing that due to it being a BS, a frieghter would be needed to move it.
Could anyone give an indication of the kinds of collateral I should be asked for (I'm guessing base mineral cost) and the rewards I should be offering.
Anyone that would be interested / know anyone interested please PM me in game aswell, this character.
Cheers, ViVeri Welcome to the end of your life - I promise you, it's going to hurt. |

You'd need a freighter. When I see them advertise their services, they typically look for 300-500k per jump in high sec, possibly more for low sec.
While that may initially feel high, keep this in mind:
They are flying a billion isk ship, that screams "gank me!" Freighters take forever to go anywhere. Anyone that owns a freighter, IE has a NAV over a billion, isn't going to flinch for any contract that's sub-million, unless you luck out and they are already headed that way.

You can only transport packaged ships in a freighter, if you want to move an assembled ship (like, one with rigs) you'd need an Orca. Sadly, an assembled battleship DOESN'T fit inside an Orca. And you can't exactly fit too many assembled battleships in a freighter either.
Collateral - pretty much the value you could get for that particular ship with everything that is on it. Reward - I'd say, anything up to 500k per jump could be considered a fair enough price, depending on people involved and the urgency of the move... but then again, how many would pay that much ?
Personally, I'd say the best way to move a battleship is to actually fly it to the destination manually (just fit a lot of IStabs on it), then return in a shuttle or somesuch. A bussiness focused on moving battleships is not exactly the best idea... EVE issues|Mining revamp|Build stuff|Make ISK |

Ahh it's not a business idea, I need it because I have a low sec status and would be worried about undocking in my nicely fitted BS just to be blown up by Concord. Welcome to the end of your life - I promise you, it's going to hurt. |

youd need a mate to fly it for you if its rigged.,
otherwise its just 50K m3 that needs to get hauled. youll have trouble getting it inside lowsec though.

If it's just one BS why not just fly it to the destination? |

It's not CONCORD that blows you up when you have a low security rating, and you can evade those NPCs if you align fast enough

Wrong. You can make a courier contract to an alt, trade the courier box back to the freighter pilot, and trade it back when you get to the destination. No need to repackage and destroy your rigs, it just takes up a LOT of space in the freighter.
If it's one battleship it's faster to fly it yourself than have it freightered over, but if you need other stuff moved as well it's a viable option. |

Istabs are useless to any organized resistance.
If the guy is in FW he WILL be killed. If he's "blinky" he'll be slowed down to a crawl by faction police and easily killed by the high sec suicide gankers (they have the firepower and he's a free target since he's blinky).

The maximum I advise to you to survive if you want to make tries is to try with a NON plated BC first. While with smaller stuff and in 0.5-0.6 I found it easy to GTFO system after system, with a bigger ship and higher sec it becomes drastically harder to avoid the NPC spawning.

He needs to nano it a lot, but he'll still get some opportunity shot expecially in > 0.6. The risk is that he'll slowly lose "health" system after system till he gets popped. I had a corp mate who lost a webbed freigther because of this, the first systems did not hurt a lot but going thru higher sec and thru more and more systems he bled to death.
What I suggest you is very easy: pay a non blinky guy able to fly your battleship to destination ;P
If it was Minmatar I'd offer to help you but ATM I am in factional war and with an handful of wardecs running off corps exactly in those places.

Weren't couriers limited to 120,000 m^3 ? A battleship is over 400,000 m^3.

You are only half right. Indeed this works for a rigged cruiser for example. But it definitely doesn't work for rigged BS. And I'm pretty sure that BC's are too big as well. The max volume is 120.000 m3 |

Its only 3 jumps to balginia and its .9 space to .8 space so its only worth a couple million but I wouldn't quit doing what i was doing for less than 5. you could sell it to the transporter for a price he could get for it if you renig and then buy it back for 5 mill more. That would be an easy way to collateralize it and just have anybody with BS for the race your ship is fly it there.

Unless it is some special ship, faction for example, you are probably better off just buying one where you want it and reselling the one you have where you don't want it.
Guess more specifics are required. If it's just a Raven or some such then just buy one really close to where you want it, much easier.
