[QUOTE=ImaPoser;4367569]Saw these pictures posted on another forum today, and it sure seems odd to see what appears to be a nice boat loaded up for overseas shipping with no care taken to it's protection.

Could be named Pink Butt or Pink Betty

wonder if she is USCG Documented ??

Unusual for a boat to be tucked in like that amongst a whole bunch of containers, unless it's on a 40ft flat rack which could well be, looks like a very late model 38/39 top gun, with a fairly distinctive paint job, can't be that hard to put someone's name to it...

I can't find it in the uscg database

That could be the one that had 496HOs in it, and went to Russia or something. That was several years ago.

It would go underneath in a multi level ship but why it is not covered up is a little bit of a worry!

Working down Port Newark some years back I remember seeing 10' wide shipping containers. Custom built length and width, nice. Available

Wish they had a 10' version a couple of years ago when I shipped my boat, might have saved me a small fortune.
Still doubt if it would fit lengthwise, same applies to a flat rack. My 34 on trailer would not fit on a flat rack by about 6". You've actually got about 39' 8" to work with and that's not allowing for careless loading. Also have to measure from the tip of the bow (or trailer hitch) to the tip of the drives or platform, the longest possible measurement.

I think it's waiting to be moved to another dock or maybe its going to Mexico for El Chapo, or perhaps Ben Kramer has another stunt organized!

I was under the impression the photos came from the docking pilot as the ship was leaving port. He posted up the ship info, I'll have to go back and find it.

:asskiss:Like stated in another post a lot of scumbags fester in stolen parts&boats then get a reward to find it??:rolleyes:
