Response: This would make a great transport for us , we have to get another large sail on the west coast the week of november 19th, We can do this for 16500.00, That would include all. Let us know what you are thinking, Thanks, Chris (8/31/2007)
Question: I am assuming there is a lift at each end, and also is the prep going to be done by the marina or your self? (8/31/2007)
Question: Hi Shipper, Just checking in to see what you are thinking, Thanks, Chris (9/1/2007)
Response: Hi Chris, I am going down this weekend to finalize things and will let you know next week on timing etc... Your bid is in the middle right now and I will give you a chance to compete for the shipment once things are finalized. Thanks for your quote. Mike (9/4/2007)
Response: Thanks for your response, We are here , and look forward to winning, Thanks, Chris (9/4/2007)
Response: Chris, Just got back from viewing boat. I had under estimated the height, it is in the 14ft 4 inches to 15ft based on removing certain equipment. Mike (9/10/2007)
Response: So from the top to the keel it is between 14 to 15 ft. (9/10/2007)
Response: Chris, Yes, depending if the winches and pedestal are removed. Everything removed - approximately 14ft 2" Without removing - approximately 14ft 9" Mike (9/10/2007)
Response: Mike, Is that the lowest we can get it? Thanks, Chris (9/10/2007)
Question: Hello, Jazzyrunner05 here. Will the mast and bemini top be removed prior to shipment? What is the measurement from the bottom of the keel to the tallest point on the boat? Will a lift service be provied at each end? Have the best day that you can. Thanks, John/Jeanine (9/3/2007)
Response: Hello John & Jeanine, Yes, the mast and bimini will be removed for shipment and lift service is available on both ends. I am going down to the boat this weekend and will double check the height measurement. Mike (9/4/2007)
Response: Thanks for the new information Mike. We have a pending big run out to Staten Island, your vessel will be our back haul. As soon as we know the measurements, when can make sure that we will clear the bridges with it on our trailer. Have the best day that you can. thanks, John/Jeanine (9/5/2007)
Response: John/Jeanine, Just got back from viewing boat. I had under estimated the height, it is in the 14ft 4 inches to 15ft based on removing certain equipment. Mike (9/10/2007)
Question: We can still get it done but we will have to get permits for theheight in every state and also route different (more miles) We will have to avoid alot of overpasses as alot are 14.6, every states legal height is 13.6 with out permits, The permits are not a big deal it is the re-routing, also every state has there own rules, some may require police escort, some may require time frames.If we can at all possible get the height lower, we can avoid alot of this. Thanks, Chris (9/10/2007)
Response: Unfortunately there is nothing else that can be removed. By removing the winches and pedestal we can get it down to the 14ft+ range. How much height does the trailer add to it? Mike (9/10/2007)
Response: The trailer will add 1 ft., Hey Mike, Can you give me the year make and model , I just want to confirm a few specs,Dont worry, we will work through this Thanks, Chris (9/10/2007)
Response: Here are the factory specifications: 1979 Gulfstsar 47 Sailmaster LOA - 47'6" (My measurements were more like 50ft) LWL - 40'6" Beam - 13'10" Draft - 5'6" Mast lenght - 55' Displacement - 38,000lbs Ballast - 10,500lbs (9/10/2007)
Response: 10-4, Let me see what this is going to take, Thanks, Chris (9/10/2007)
Question: at 14'4"high this will greatly effect the price and the degree of difficulty to get the job done. i will look up the height in the book and verify.DRD (9/14/2007)
