Additional Information: I would like to ship both the boat and trailer on a flatbed. the boat trailer has some rust issues that make the trailer untowable, etc. The boat is a 26' long boat sitting on a trailer that makes is just over 28' long. The outdrive will add two to three feet. It is okay to back the boat and trailer onto your trailer and have the front of the trailer hang over your trailer. Blocking the boat trailer at various points on your trailer should work just fine. I would like to move this ASAP. Report a Violation

Questions for this shipment: 

Question: CAN THIS BE LOADED BACKWARDS ONTO A FLATBED TRAILER? I AM BASED OUT OF KS AND AM VERY FLEXIBLE AND DEPENDABLE AS THE SUN. IF I SAY I WILL DO IT, IT WILL BE DONE. IF THERE IS A WAY TO BACK IT ON AT THE LOADING LOCATION, IT WOULD RIDE JUST FINE TO TX AND THEN PULL IT OFF WHEN IT GETS THERE. WHAT DO YOU THINK? AND WHEN WOULD YOU LIKE THIS DONE? THANKS--GTHAULING (12/24/2007)
Response: GT hauling, it will load up just fine by back it up on the trailer. I think that would be the best way to load and unload. Happy Holidays (12/24/2007)
Response: WHEN DO YOU WANT THIS TO YOU? GTHAULING (12/25/2007)
Response: The boat and trailer are ready for pickup as of tomorrow the 26th. The Marina where the boat is located is open Tuesday-Saturday. (12/25/2007)
Response: I HAVE PLACED A BID AND WILL FOLLOW THROUGH WITH EXACTLY WHAT I SAY I WILL DO. I WILL NOT NEED ANY OTHER HELP THAN SOME ONE TO SIMPLY BACK THIS TRAILER ONTO MY TRAILER. I WILL NOT TAKE MUCH OF ANYONE ELSES TIME. I WILL BLOCK UP AND TIE DOWN AND DELIVER IN GGOD TIME. WHAT ELSE CAN I DO TO EARN YOUR BUSINESS? YOU TELL ME HOW YOU WANT IT DONE AND WE WILL DO IT FOR YOU. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR TIME--GTHAULING (12/26/2007)
Response: GTHAULING, The target price I am looking for is $850, if you can do that and pick it up this week I will book it with you. The sooner the better. (12/30/2007)
Question: Shipper. I will have a truck and trailer in the area around the 9th of Jan. Is the current trailer road worthy to get to the nearest marina so the boat and trailer could be lifted onto my trailer? If so, I will bid accordingly. Thank you and Happy Holidays.....Phil (12/24/2007)
Response: Haul4all, there is a way to lift the boat and trailer at the marina where it is located. The boat and trailer would have to be loaded on the transporting trailer by back it on via ramps.. (12/25/2007)
Question: if you think it would make it on that trailer or if theres a place i can unload it and put it on your trailer il be glad to run get this for you when you get ready thanks calvin with shipcheap. (12/24/2007)
Question: Shipper could you please tell me if you have a way to load and off load from our trailer? We would transport both your boat and trailer on our trailer. thanks ddonaldson Marine Transport (12/25/2007)
Response: The trailer can be backed onto your trailer if you have ramps. The marina has a hill they use to unload trailers in this type of situation, they also have a tractor with a hitch that is used to move the boats and trailers around. On my end there is a loading dock that should be around 2' or 3' high that should allow for an easy unload. I can use my truck to unload it on my end. Sorry for the delay in response, i did not realize I missed your question... (12/30/2007)
Question: is this still available for pick up thanks shipcheap. (12/26/2007)
Question: Ques#1 Could you bring your trailer to Dallas? (for me to go get the boat with?) Ques#2 I must ask what is the problem with the trailer it is on? Ques#3 What is to become of that trailer? (12/26/2007)
Response: I could bring the trailer to Dallas. The trailer the boat is sitting in has sone rust issues. I had considered picking it up later and having it repaired or selling it for parts. it has nice wheels, good axles, etc. (12/27/2007)
Question: i can go get this after the 1st for you i live south of dallas thanks shipcheap. (12/27/2007)
Question: I AM HEADED YOUR WAY AND WILL BE IN TEXAS BY THE FIFTH I COUD LOAD IT AND HAUL IT TO YOUR DOOR FOR 850 I DO NEED TO KNOW ONE MEASURMENT FROM THE FRONT TIRE TO THE BACK OF THE BOAT AND THEN I CAN GIVE YOU A FORMAL BID THANK YOU (12/28/2007)
Response: Is this price to transport the boat and trailer or just the boat? I will have to call the marina to get the exact measurements, I can go by memory and pictures and tell you it it between 3 and 4 feet. I do know that the trailer width from outer wheel to outer wheel is 8'6". I will update you with the exact info later this afternoon. (12/29/2007)
Response: yes that is for boat and trailer and i do need to know the full length of the trailer from tip of the tongue to the back of the boat thank you (12/29/2007)
Response: I am almost positive that it measures about 28, under 29' feet for sure. Of course the outdrive is going to add a few feet. I am awaiting a call back from the marina within the next 30 minutes. When were you looking at picking it up? (12/29/2007)
Response: i will double check all my measurements pickup would be around the 2nd (12/29/2007)
Response: The 2nd will be just fine. The marina called and sadi the boat measures 31' if you measure from the front of the trailer tongue to the rear prop of the outdrive. The outdrive measures just at 3' making the boat and trailer at 28'. (12/29/2007)
Response: sorry to not respond sonner just picked up my trailer and the longest i could haul is 28ft thanks for you time (1/1/2008)
Response: The boat and trailer is 28', the outdrive makes it closer to 31'. Its not a problem if the tongue hangs over. Once the boat trailer is back on yours the outdrive could be lowered some to gain probably a foot or so. But if you are not comfortable I understand. Thanks (1/1/2008)
Response: i know we dont want to do any thing that would upset your listing so all our communications will be thrue uship tell you accept a formal bid it will be later on this afternoon when i want to look at the boat (1/1/2008)
Response: thank you sir i will be in touch with them and as soon as i make my desicion i will place my bid. if it works are you going to accept my bid at 850 or did i quote you 800 i guess i should know that before i take to much time (1/1/2008)
Response: I will accept a bid of $850 immediately upon your inspection. I can tell you that the boat and trailer were flatbedded from Arizona with no problems. The boat rode on the trailer just fine in its current condition. Thanks (1/1/2008)
Response: thank you i am just about at the marina so i will let you know in an hour or two (1/1/2008)
Response: If you need to message me and I can get in touch with the Marina if you need additional information. Thanks again (1/1/2008)
Response: i wasout at the marina everthing looks good my biggest probablem is loading they have a boom truck that should work so i will gie a shot and see if we cant get it done (1/1/2008)
Question: What is wrong with the trailer that it is on now? If you could have it fixed I could pull it down to Austin for 500.00 (12/29/2007)
Response: It is rusted in several locations due to salt water use. I do not have a shop in Lyndon, Ks that can repair it. Sorry (12/29/2007)
Question: hello,jeff thanks for the reply im not home im in mississippi but returning back there on the 1st does that mean that i will be able to get your trailer and off load boat from old trailer to your trailer or is that trailer able to make it didnt quit understand what you was telling me if so im ready to run get this for you thanks alot calvin with shipcheap (12/29/2007)
Response: For the price mentioned they are moving both the boat and the trailer that it is currently sitting on. (12/29/2007)
Response: thanks for the reply they must have a flatbed i dont have one but if you got a trailer that i can load it on im more willing to help you in any way i can thanks calvin. (12/29/2007)
Question: HI shipper, THis is JV TRANSPORT and I am interested in transporting. I can place a bid and have a flatbed trailer that will work. If the boat can be loaded and unloaded onto my trailer. Please let me know if this will work. thanks Joe. (12/29/2007)
Response: Joe, There is a "hill" that the marina says the truck and trailer can be backed up too and the boat and trailer can easily be backed onto your trailer. They have a tractor with a hitch that they use to move the trailers around, etc. There is a loading dock that you can back up to where the boat where be unloaded and I can use my truck to pull it off your trailer.. Thanks (12/30/2007)
Question: Thanks for considering my operation,however I can't cut out some time right now to do it at a reasonable price.Something that may help If you have a wrecker outfit that you could take it to they can pick it up to a stepdeck with a rollback to load it.A one ton with a winch set up and trailer(Car) would be perfect....tduncan55 (1/1/2008)
Response: Thank you for the message. I can certainly arrange for a wrecker to be present if necessary. The Marina has a nice "hill" that they said would be perfect for a trailer to back up to and then they would back the boat trailer onto the flatbed. Sounds a little crude but this is a small marina so there is not a loading dock.. (1/1/2008)
Question: good morning,HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU.I WOULD BE MORE THAN INTERESTED IN WORKING FOR YOU.I COULD COME TO AUSTIN AND GET YOUR TRAILER AND GO PICK UP YOUR BOAT FOR YOU AND BRING IT BACK.MY FEE WOULD BE A GOOD DEAL FOR US BOTH IF I COULD KEEP THE TRAILER IT IS ON NOW.I COULD MAKE THE REPAIRS ON IT AND USE IT.AND $800 TO ME.WILL THIS WORK FOR YOU?IF SO LET ME KNOW AND I WILL PLACE A BID FOR YOUR ACCEPTANCE.THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.I HOPE TO HEAR BACK FROM YOU SOON (1/1/2008)
Response: I have been getting bids from $500 to $800 to use my trailer so I guess I do not see the benefit. I would be interested if you could make the repairs to trailer and then use it to tow the boat down. I could pay you for the repairs and for towing it down. Otherwise I will make the repairs to the trailer once it is down here and either keep it or sell it. (1/1/2008)
Response: WELL THE ONLY OFFER FOR $500 IS IF YOU HAVE THE TRAILER FIXED PRIOR TO MOVING IT.GOOD LUCK ON YOUR SHIPMENT.I NO LONGER HAVE INTEREST (1/1/2008)
Response: After reading your feedback, I am no longer interested.. (1/1/2008)
Response: IF YOU REREAD MY OFFER YOU WILL SEE.I WAS OFFERING TO GET YOUR TRAILER FROM YOU AND GOING TO PICKUP YOUR BOAT AND BRINGING IT BACK TO YOU (1/1/2008)
Response: I understand, that is how everyone is bidding or they are using a flatbed to bring both which is my preference. Please accept my apologies as I would rather just wait for another transporter's offer. (1/1/2008)
