Questions for this shipment: 

Question: do you have any way to load and unload this boat on my trailer? Will be delivering in your area mid April and can bring your boat back with me. Dave/KingTransport (3/28/2008)
Response: THE ONLY WAY WE CAN LOAD IT IS FOR YOU TO BACK YOUR TRAILER IN THE WATER AT THE DOCK AND WE CAN LOAD IT THAT WAY. WE CAN DO THE SAME WHEN YOU REACH THE DESTINATION. HOW DOES THAT SOUND? THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION. TRINA SMALL (3/31/2008)
Response: is there any way to have the boat lifted on and off of our trailer?(fork lift or travel lift, available at most marinas) most transporters use dry trailers that do not go in the water for loading and unloading? Thanks,Dave/KingTransport (4/2/2008)
Question: I'm sorry sir I do not have the right equipment for your move. Thanks for your interest. (3/31/2008)
Question: I take it there are no loading facilities at either end? I am somewhat familiar with Elk Grove but not really with any marinas there, you are alot more apt to recieve a compatetive bid if you can have it loaded and unloaded with a lift thankyou (4/1/2008)
Question: You will find that you are not getting many bids because of the loading situation.Most of us are transporters(full size rigs)and need to have boat loaded/unloaded and add others to it to be able to give a decent price on these smaller boats.Loading and unloading at a dealer or marina can cost as little as 100.00 to as much as 350.00 for this size.A crane is very expensive.tduncan55 (4/11/2008)
Question: Shipper does this still need transported. We have a trailer that we could water load and off load in the area of pick up .We could pick up on Friday if you are ready. thanks ddonaldson Marine Transport (4/24/2008)
Response: HI THERE! I WAS ON VACATION AND JUST RECEIVED YOUR EMAIL. THIS STILL NEEDS TO BE TRANSPORTED. WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO BE IN THE AREA AGAIN? THANK YOU, TRINA SMALL (4/24/2008)
Response: Trina we can't drop until Friday we could wait a day if that would help since you a loading by water . Would that make a differance. thanks ddonaldson (4/24/2008)
Response: We are actually moving on May 22nd. to Myrtle Beach, SC. Would you be able to transport at that time? You will be able to lift my boat out of the water and sit it back in the water once we arrive to Myrtle Beach? I sure hope so. I've been reading you positive and negative comments and I liked what I read. Thanks alot Deb for everything. Take Care, Trina (4/29/2008)
Response: Yes that would not be a problem if we have made arrangement ahead of time. I will place a bid if you are still interested. thanks ddonaldson Marine Transport (4/30/2008)
Response: thank you so much! I welcome your bid! Have a great day! (5/2/2008)
Response: Trina if you would like to see the trailer that we would use you can look at our feedback there is a picture of two of our trailers there. thanks ddonaldson Marine Transport (5/2/2008)
Question: IN lodi now going to my shop in charleston,sc is this ready? read our profile can do for your targrt price..ship with confidence, we use uship only when my shop is slow, dale leaving today (5/15/2008)
Response: Boat is ready to be moved. So $2000.00 is what you will charge me? Are you able to back your trailer in the water at Miller Park? Are you going to be able to drop it off in Myrtle Beach? Very interested...How soon can you pick up the boat? (5/15/2008)
Response: Sorry we are already out of that area..Thank you dale (5/15/2008)
Response: Dale, do you come to Sacramento, Ca very often? I would be willing to wait for you to pick up my boat until the next time you come through the area. I'm on such a tight budget with moving from California to South Carolina. My boat is on the Sacramento River and if you are ever interested in picking it up and then I can come pick it up from Charleston, SC please let me know. I appreciate you. Thank you so much, Trina Small (5/16/2008)
Response: we do come out here often yes but is rather sporadic, because fuel is so much higher here on the west coast. I certainly can keep in touch and bring it with me when you decide the move.....ok thanks dale (5/16/2008)
Response: Hey Dale, we found out the boat weighs 5775 pounds! Thank you, Trina Small (5/17/2008)
Response: There is a problrm with ooicking up your boat on my big rig, it would be considered oversize. Your boat is 10 ft anything over 8.6 will require a permit. I willhave to get another trailer, and put it behind the other rig, are you having this shrink wrapped? it would be a good idea that the canvas be taken down steady winds all those miles on that old of a canvas may rip it.I am checking all possabilaties of bringing another trailer out just will have to find a boat comeing into ca or nv ok thanks dale (5/17/2008)
Response: Hi Dale! I just had a custom new canvas put on the boat a year ago. I won't be able to have the boat shrinkwraped because when you are ready to pick up the boat it will have to be started up and meet your truck at the Miller Park loading dock. I will make sure the new canvas is taken off and stored down below. I do know that the beem is 10 feet. Weight is 5775. Thank you for all your help, Trina Small (5/18/2008)
Response: Ok looks like we will bring our big truck with a boat, and our dully with the trailer to haul your boat .I have other buusiness in that area, an offer I cant refuse so I will be in the position to haul your unit back with my other driver.This trailer has no problem on going into the water.What is your deadline for the pick up let me know ok,is there some one that will be there ? dale (5/18/2008)
Response: Deadline for pick up is May 19th, 20th, 21st..... Will you place the bid so I can talk to you directly Dale? I am packing my house and the computer is getting ready to be packed up and I wont have anyway to talk to you...Thank you, Trina Small (5/19/2008)
Question: Trina, ok tell you what since it seems your in a bind, I can make some arrangements to bring one out here in a different trailer that it could sit on when your ready to pick up,,dale (5/16/2008)
Response: All I can say is "Thank you so much (with tears in my eyes)... I am ready now. I can have the boat meet you at the loading ramp at Miller Park whenever. I am driving my family across country on Wednesday the 21st of May or even the 22nd :-). It is going to be an experience for us. I just cant wait to go "home" to South Carolina! I'm new to this uship thing??? What do we do next? Do you place the bid and I accept to get each other's information? Thank you again Dale, Trina Small (5/16/2008)
Response: trina yes I will place the bid just except it. Our return trip will bring it to you ok, are you sure about the weight? give me all the goodies so I can check on it in google,,, I will book a trip here to pick it up one way or another one of my trucks will get it,,,,,welcome to sc dale (5/17/2008)
Response: Thank you Dale. I will accept the bid when I see it come up! I'm not positive on the weight though. My husband and I are pretty much guessing on the weight. He says it might be lighter than that. I hope so. How about the canvas? Do we leave our canvas on or do you recommend that we take it off? Thank you for the welcome to SC! I absolutely FELL IN LOVE with the beauty and the sweet Southern Folks! Oh yea, the SWEET TEA TOO!!!!! My husband was born and raised in Myrtle Beach and hadn't been home in 30 years....what a vacation it was for the 3 of us... :-) (5/17/2008)
Response: Thank you trina, will there be any one there? I would want to make sure that any extra weight is off water, fuel...ect. Every thing else is fine. Its a plan thanks dale.Its a shame there is no lift since one truck was empty in that area...But its trailer can not go in the water....I have another unit in wa that can go in the water it our hydro trailer but it would not be cost effective thanks dale (5/18/2008)
Response: Sorry about the lift problem. I wish there was one too...Sure would make this whole thing easier. I really just need to know when your truck is going to be at the loading dock? Hey does your company move cars too? I have 5 cars and 1 speedboat and 1 motorcycle that needs to be moved also? just curious :-) (5/19/2008)
Question: Trina, can you tell me when you had in mind to transport your boat to the east coast? Let start with that. thanks ddonaldson (5/16/2008)
Response: Hi Deb, I really dont have the money for your bid. :-( I have to stick to my target price. I do, thank you so much though... (5/19/2008)
Question: Trina, look at electracraft 16CS (5/18/2008)
Question: There is no way to pick this up that early.......thought it was being set for a later pick up? dale get back to me asap (5/19/2008)
Response: How about June 30th? That works for us. That way we can get settled in our new home and prepare for a way to pick up our boat from your shop. Thank you, Trina (5/19/2008)
Question: Make sure you read our bid info before excepting...this bid includes permits.....let me know (5/19/2008)
