F.Y.I It is the same distance to Calgary when you go through North Dakota/SK route as it is to Sweetgrass, MT. I run that route on a regular basis. Would save you the 400 mile round trip. Just a thought. I placed a bid as well. Thanks. JeremiahReport a Violation
Question:
3/15/2008
Looks like you are trying to get this shipped for free. Don't know what you think it costs to ship a boat across country with $4 diesel, insurance, etc. Might want to consider shipping the product yourself. Just a thought. Report a Violation
Response: Definitely do not want this done for free ... just listed late last week and will accept the most competitive bid taken into account final delivery point. Thanks3/15/2008Report a Violation
Response: : You may want to review the uShip user agreement. Pay close attention to Paragraph 11,14,& 15. It helps explain what is required by law to transport goods across state lines. You can verify any carriers "authority" (what makes them LEGAL) @ www.safersys.org. Just input there MC# (this is the number that the carriers authority is under). Diesel is $4 gal insurance is $9,000 a year, there will be tolls in the north east along with tolls in the Chicago area. You will also not want to have this trailered towed with the travel tarp. They aren't intended to hold up for a cross country trip. I would definetly have it shrink wrapped. I am in ID now on my way to deliver this boat/aritic cat to Calgary tonight. Just went through a massive snow storm. Shrink wrap is the only way to go. Also as mentioned before coming from the east coast it is a shorter distance when you go through ND/SK rather then over to Sweetgrass then up to Calgary. I have run that route many time in the past.3/15/2008Not in Violation
Response: Please resubmit your bid The boat is now ready for pick up and we can be flexible on dates. Did not purchase Sea-doo so please rebid for delivery to Calgary. Thank you! 5/2/2008Report a Violation
Question:
3/18/2008
what is your time frame for pick-up? thanksReport a Violation
Response: Sorry made a mistake on the last answer to your question ... I meant to say LAST WEEK OF APRIL ... sorry!3/18/2008Report a Violation
Question:
3/22/2008
Hi, to answer the question about adding a personal watercraft, yes can be done. Would have to put together with a load of new boats going to Calgary. We would transport your boats on our trailer with the new Wake Board boats. Just have to get the timing right and this will cost more money for the 2 spaces on the trailer. We also would have to get an OK from our Calgary dealer. Let me know, SteveReport a Violation
Response: Looks like the boat will be ready for pickup at the end of the first week of May ... should have exact date this week. Please rebid for delivery to Calgary of the Cobalt alone, and also a separte cost for the cobalt and a seadoo. Thanks! 4/6/2008Report a Violation
Response: : Thanks for the opportunity to rebid. As I had explained earlier, we would have to pick up the boat and trailer and take it to the manufactuer's facility and then put it together with a load going to our dealer in Calgary. This would not be a direct trip from Conneaut Lake to Calgary. There is a Marina on hwy 6 - 322 that could load your boat on to our trailer. We could suggest a customs broker in Calgary to handle your paper work. I am sure we can make arrangments for off loading at our dealer in Calgary. Stay in touch, as time is always a situation to deal with. SLSites4/6/2008Report a Violation
Response: The boat will be ready for pick-up on or after April 29 ... I am now wanting delivery direct to Calgary so please advise if you can rebid. Thanks!4/24/2008Report a Violation

Question:
4/7/2008
I placed a bid last month and it was declined as price to high. Would you like me to rebid for delivery into Calgary. Please let me know the details of the seadoo as well. Thanks. Jeremiah (Kodiak)Report a Violation
Response: Yes please rebid. The same dealer where I bought the cobalt from has a sea-doo for a good price. So please provide an updated bid for the boat only and then a quote for the cobalt and sea-doo shipping. The cost of shipping may make the sea-doo more expensive than purchasing in Canada. Also the cobalt is getting some option put on before shipping ... estimated to be ready for pickup the first week of May ... but I am flexible on date! Thanks!4/7/2008Report a Violation
Response: : My original bid was $4200 2 months ago. Fuel has risen in those 2 months so my new bid would be $4300. If you fine with the price the earliest I can ship it is 1st week of June. As mentioned I can deliver this to your front door in Calgary. Please let me know. Thanks. Jeremiah5/3/2008Report a Violation

Question:
5/2/2008
Hello shipper, are you in need of transporting these items ? Please advise, as I would like the opportunity to earn your business. Thanks for considering us, Dan, Trenton TransportationReport a Violation
Response: Ok What kind of transport do you have? I did not purchase the Sea-doo ... so just the boat? Do I need to meet you at the US/Canada boarder or can you bring right up to Calgary? Do you have insurnace? Thanks5/2/2008Report a Violation
Response: : I utilize a 2005 Dodge 2500HD Cummins 4x4 truck. I do not have a lot of experience crossing the border, my experience has been that is the property owner that is importing the property is not present, a broker is necessary. That is why I said I will continue on with the boar up to Calgary, if you would meet me at the border to do the paper work. I am insured for what I am towing up to $500,000. I would need appx. 24 hours notice to schedule pickup and then appx. four days travel time to get to the border crossing. I take my time and care for your property as if it was my own. I would provide you with my cellphone number so you could track your shipment anytime you desired. Thank you for considering me, Dan - Trenton Transportation5/2/2008Report a Violation
