Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Can take directly to Calgary. Have a few shipments going to BC & AB in the next coming weeks. You would need a broker. I can refer you to the company we use if you need one. What is your timeframe on shipping? Thanks. Jeremiah (2/19/2008)
Response: Yes if you could get me a broker that would be great. My timeframe is flexible but I would like a hard date so I can get the boat from the seller. He needs garage space but is willing to be patient. If you are interested please send me a quote. Thanks, Wayne (2/20/2008)
Response: We use HH Smith in Coutts, AB. We are about 2-3 weeks out on shipments. Let me know if this is feesable and if so I can place a bid. Thanks. Jeremiah (2/20/2008)
Response: I think we should be fine with those timelines. The seller is patient but I don't want to bother him until the end of March. I have a driver in MT that quoted me $1200 but is not sure when he will be down that way. He shipped me a truck from TX a month ago and did a great job. I have another quote of $2100 from a few days ago. To me that is steep so I thought I would shop around before I make a decision. Thanks, Wayne (2/20/2008)
Response: $2100 is a very good price. $1200 sounds very low even if we loaded this onto our trailer with another shipment. This is about 2600 miles so @ $1200 that is less then $.50 a mile. If your looking for delivery @ end of March that is very reasonable. (2/20/2008)
Response: OK it's just that it makes my purchase go up by 20%. I meant I did not want to leave the boat in his garage until late March. Delivery by late March is fine. (2/20/2008)
Response: OH OK. I could do before then. I thought you meant you didn't want it picked up until that time. (2/20/2008)
Response: You did not submit a quote to Calgary as of yet. Thanks Wayne (2/20/2008)
Response: $2400 to Calgary. This most likely would be loaded onto our flat deck trailer for transport so we can accomadate other loads going into Canada. If you want me to place a bid let me know. Thanks. Jeremiah (2/20/2008)
Response: Hi Jeremiah, Could you please let me know about the broker. Does it also cost money to use a broker ? If so how much ? Thanks, Wayne (2/20/2008)
Response: Broker is HH Smith in Coutts, AB. Yes the broker charges a fee for there services. It is based upon the purchase price of the item being imported. The fee is roughly $125-$150 I believe. They handle the paperwork and gst tax for you. Only them ourself can do the paperwork. The shipping companies can't. I can't give you there number directly through the site but you can look them up. Hope this answers your questions. Thanks. Jeremiah (2/20/2008)

Question: Could it be done sooner? (2/20/2008)
Response: The earliest for pick up would be probably this Saturday. Does that work ? (2/20/2008)
Response: I'LL HAVE TO CHECK WITH YOU ON THAT DATE. (2/20/2008)
Question: Hi! Check Out My Feedback By Clicking On My Name! When Will This Ready To Go? Are You Sure About The Weight? Does Weight Include Boat,Engine,Trailer And All Accessories?

You simply just check in and leave the keys with the lady at the front desk. Thanks, Wayne (2/20/2008)
Response: Wayne! Thanks For Your Reply! Are You Sure About The Weight? Does Weight Include Boat,Engine,Trailer And All Accessories? What Are Your Deadlines For Pickup And Delivery? What Days And Hours Can Pickup And Dropoff Be Done? Please Let Me Know Right Away So I Can Figure My Low Bid! Thanks! Dave (2/20/2008)
Response: The boat weighs 1700 pounds and the trailer we estimtaed at 300 pounds. Maybe the trailer could be as high as 600 pounds at the very most. It is a small jet boat that includes the weight of the engine. The only thing extra is the bimini top which weighs maybe 5 pounds and gas in the tank. Thanks, Wayne (2/20/2008)
Question: I WILL BOOK IT NOW IF TOWING NEXT WEEK IS OK TO SWEETGRASS (2/20/2008)
Response: Hi, Pick up is fine next week. To be safe I would say for sure next week after Wednesday. I express posted the bank draft cheque to the owner of the boat on Tuesday. They told me it should take 3 days so I would think for sure by next Wednesday would give us insurance on extra time. Does that work for you ? How would you be shipping the boat ? When would I expect delivery to Sweetgrass ? Thanks, Wayne (2/20/2008)
Response: depending on weather 3 or 4 days after pickup. (2/21/2008)
