Default 34' Cruiser from Detroit to West Mi

How much should I be looking to pay to have a 34' cruiser 12'6" 14,000lbs brought over to the Westside?
No trailer

Thanks,
Jason

Theres no one better then Home Page!

ED and Jan at Sea Wise are the type of people we enjoy dealing with. Ed is also a Marine Surveyor so he knows exactly how to load your boat.

Top of the line trucks and trailers.

1.50 a mile?? what are you guys on crack?? only if you get super lucky and catch someone on a backhaul, u need a rig and someone with a trailer, I'd say expect around 4-4.50 a mile for someone you can trust

Probably close, I would have said 800 if the hauler is locally based.

Just wanted to give an update. Had the boat brought over from the east side. Ended up using a company called http://boat-logistics.com/ . Everything went flawless and couldn't be any happier. Had a couple of referrals that had boats picked up in New York and and Florida and said to use them. And if anyone is curious the cost was $1300.
