Good Honest people who will do the job right. Have no clue if the price will be what you want but worth a try. You do get what you pay for though.....

Good luck!

I looked into shipping a 21 foot boat a few months ago from Maine to Washington and typically had quotes of $4000 to $6000 (thru USHIP) which didnt make sense for a $5000 boat but thats just what it costs.
The cheapest way to go would be to fly out to cali, rent an SUV and drive it back--Would probably cost you about $2200-$2500 assuming $1200 for fuel, $600 for SUV (one way rental) and another $400-700 for hotel and food.

Plus plane ticket, and most important....Loss of income, vacation days, etc!

BTW, stay away from U-Ship.

Thats why a boat that far doesnt really make sense to purchase unless you get a steal. By the time you factor in a flight to just look at it once and then shipping. NY to Cali is about 2500miles factor in 10mpg in a two vehicle you have at least 1500 bucks in fuel.

I plan on having a Boat shipped from Florida around the week of March 26-30 to So California, are you looking at the Pantera in Huntington Beach ?
Im in Fullerton which is very close.

Maybe your guy can bring my Boat out and return with yours. We might save a few bucks if he has a return delivery.

The majority of drivers that use U-ship to find loads are illegal in at least 1 way. Most of the time about to go out of business if not already out of business! The prices are lower, but you are not getting the same service.

U-ship is about as good as the dating services of Craiglist
