Hello Shipper, what is your time frame for this move? Thanks Nick EMI Transport
Response: Nick,
Can you re-submitt your bid this morming 5/12. I will be in the office till noon. If it's afternoon noon today, make it active until the 16th, I'm out of town again this week. Also, Savanah marina in IL, said the water should be down by week of 5/18 or 5/25. The river needs to drop another 2 feet. They also request it be picked on a week day. Everything is set up in Memphis to use the marina lift to unload. Thanks

Response: Nick,
Savannah does not have a lift, but they put this and other house boats in and out of the water annually with a trailer. So I would perfer to wet load. If that's not possible there is a marina about 20 miles down river that has a lift. The destination, McKellar Marina, has a lift.

4/18/2008 Response: : No prob on wet loading we wet load most of the house boats we ship, is this boat a 38 River Queen with twin dana out drives?
4/18/2008 Response: Nick,
Yes, she's a River Queen, and has twin Eaton out drives.
4/18/2008 Response: : Larry, I can move this no prob, but I cant di it for your target price, fuel price has gone crazy and using our wet load house boat trailer its deadhead there and back when we are done, the best I could do it for is $2900, let me know if this will work and I will submit a bid. Thanks Nick
4/18/2008 Response: Hi Nick,
Sorry, I've been out of town and could not answer your last e-mail. Your quote was 2900. I would be interested at 1.25 per mile + fuel. That would be 1500 in miles, and I would estimate 800 in fuel.
I would estimate a range of 2300 - 2500.

5/1/2008 Response: : Hello Larry, The $2900 is everything, Im booked for the next 3 weeks, I could do it after or if something comes open I could fit it in, Let me know and I will submit my bid. Thanks Nick EMI Transport
5/2/2008 Response: OK Nick, Submit a bid. The river's above flood stage in Savannah, IL now so they're not allowing launch or load. Sould be down in three weeks.
