Questions for this shipment: 

Question: what is the exact width of trailer or boat widest point (1/31/2008)
Response: The trailer is the widest point, it is 99 and 2/3 inches. Let me know if you have any other questions. (2/1/2008)
Response: ok so the trailer wont fit, how about the boat its beam width (2/1/2008)
Response: The beam is 8'3". Do you mean that the boat trailer is to wide to put on a semi trailer? Isn't the maximum width 102"? (2/1/2008)
Response: a sea container. it will not fit (2/1/2008)
Response: Yes, I believe the shipment type is called Roll On Roll off. Not sure exactly how this works. (2/2/2008)
Response: it just mean its on its own wheels (2/2/2008)
Question: Length overall spec on the boat is 22' 6". Accurate measurements are critical on ocean freight - would you please provide the length including trailer? Length must be measured from the tip of the trailer tongue to the rear of the outdrive. Thank you, John JTC Global Transport (2/2/2008)
Response: I just measured it. From end of the propeller to the very front end of the trailer it is 295". However, the front tongue of the trailer can fold which makes the total length 273". (2/2/2008)
Question: are you ready to roll??? (2/5/2008)
Response: Can you also give me a quote for just the ocean shipment? It seems that the inland transport is pretty expensive. I will potentially pull the boat to the east coast my self. (2/5/2008)
Response: THIS IS OCEAN SHIPMENT BID.MARKES64 (2/5/2008)
Response: I believe your quote also included the shipping from Des Moines, Iowa to the east coast, right? (2/5/2008)
Response: yes due to i will have to go to the port to ship it and do the paper work.it would save you $300 if you take it to the port yourself.let me know what you want (2/5/2008)
Question: WHERE N THE EAST COAST ARE YOU TAKING IT? Would you like a price from Chicago or New York? american worldwide freight services (2/5/2008)
Response: Can I ship it from Chicago? If so, please give me that price. (2/5/2008)
Question: First ofall a standard ocean container is 7"8" wide inside dimensiions. Your boat is too wide for a standard container. A 20" flatrack is 8' wide. It appears that your boat is too wide for that as well. I can handle this as special handling cargo but you will have to get it to the Port at Baltimore. CAn you do that? By the way what does all of this weigh? american worldwide freight services (2/5/2008)
Response: Correct, the boat does not fit inside a container. The weight of the boat is 3500 lbs and I would think the trailer is around 1000 lbs so probably a total of 4500 lbs. I might be able to pull the boat to Baltimore. Please submit a bid for the ocean freight. (2/5/2008)
Response: Fine, I assume your consignee will take care of Swedish customs. What is the value of the entire shipment. I may need to register ii on teh AES system. american worldwide freight services (2/5/2008)
Response: Value is $40000. (2/6/2008)

Response: So you have no problem with it being picked up at the warehouse in Gothenburg? (3/25/2008)
Response: No, that is what I planned to do. (3/26/2008)
Question: I should say $400 for the insurance. (4/2/2008)
