|
|
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  _________________

I've heard 1-2K depending on how far.
But I was gonna say, just drive the damn thing there haha.
Dont' worry, wakeboard hulls are MADE for rough water.  |

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

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... _________________ FlyZone Wakeboarding Costa Rica |
