I'm curious how much it would cost to ship a boat from west coast??? to Hawaii. Also if any of you have experiences with shipping a boat.
There really aren't many here, and im starting to come into a place where I can afford to purchase one.

I've seen a few here, but only one that was for sale. 05 SANTE, dude wanted like 43k, needless to say it was out of my league.

Thanks.

ive heard of folks having boats shipped(ie towed) within the US for like $900, but have never priced it personally. having to put the boat on a boat, would definatly make the shipping price sky rocket Shocked

Unless he went for a CSX... which might not be a bad choice, though quite pricy...

We had our boat shipped from Florida (Port Canaveral) to Costa Rica for about $2400 if I remember correctly. It's a lot cheaper if you can fit the boat in a container. However most won't fit...
