Question: you do know by puting this on a flat bed you are making it an oversized load because of the height thanks jk (5/8/2006)

Question: Hi, I understand your concern about the trailer. As I would have the same concerns. Do you know the history of the trailer, if you do then things like the age of the tires and if the bearings have been repacked are important info. I am a retired professional mechanic who has hauled loads for 30 years. I can offer you a service to upon arrival evaluate the trailer, and tires. A spare tire is inexpensive, I should have one that will work. I normally carry extras in case a customers trailer has a flat. I would be sure that at least one spare tire was onboard before departing with the trailer. The next item to look at is the bearings, then the wiring-lights. If any of these items need attention, I am qualified and capable to perform these tasks even if a problem occurs in route. I will provide any trailer services at a VERY small fee. Believe me that would rather not work on the trailer unless absolutely necessary, for transportation of the boat. That being said, I would not hesitate to pe (5/11/2006)

Question: Hi, sail boats of this size can rarely be loaded or unloaded using the ramp at a marina unless there is a ultra long trailer available. So it would be realistic to count on crane loading on each end. On boats like this I have been purchasing individual policy’s for each boat, and offering insurance to the shipper at my additional cost, which depends on your declared value. However I have found that if the boat owner currently has a good insurance policy on the boat the owners policy will cover the boat in transit. This saves both of us money, while still protecting your investment. Delivery time will be relatively fast, my estimate is 3 to 7 days. I am based about 200 miles north of Austin, and I am in Texas now. Let me know what you think, and if you would like for me to move this boat for you for the $2500 quoted. (5/12/2006)
