Response: Hi KLCM, Boy I understand that, fuel prices are crazy right now!! Well let me ask, would you be willing to go get it if I offered you $700? Due to your feedback and a gut feeling I feel you would be the best choice for me and I have no way of picking up this boat(I know, could've been a dumb choice on my part, buying it out of state!). Either way, thank you very much for your time. Sincerely, John (5/15/2008)
Response: Thanks for the offer. I know it sounds like a lot of money from your point and I appreciate it, but I have been getting 1.50 - 1.85 a mile for the boats I've been transporting this past week. Fuel went up 20 cents in a week, and that hurts. Thanks again, You'll find someone, if not get back with me. Good luck (5/16/2008)

Would this price include replacement insurance? Thank you! Sincerely, John (5/20/2008)
Question: when would u like to have this ship, an what is ur target price, glh service euless,tx 76040 (5/18/2008)
Question: Hi, you will probably have to chance shipping this boat uninsured to have it shipped under $1,000.00. Of course that is my opinion, and I can do it for 700.00 if you like. James (5/20/2008)
Response: Hi James, Am getting bids insured in the $7-800 range. Shipping a new $90K boat uninsured is asking for trouble. I do appreciate your offer, thank you. Sincerely, John (5/20/2008)
