Prices are insane atm. I've shipped boards from Sunny Coast to Adelaide for between $60 & $110. I purchased a board in Anglesea last week and the same company wanted $460

and that's not the most expensive quote I got.
He could try Uship but I don't like his chances to Tassie. I chucked the job up on their site and got lucky. A bloke was heading from Anglesea area to Adelaide and had room on his truck. His price was very reasonable. Fingers crossed he's gentle with it.
