Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Sir what kind of keel full, fin, shoal, wing? makes a difference in heights, how soon would you like this moved, and is weight listed the displacement provided in specs? if so the keel weight should be added for an accurate weight. I will place a bid promptly with the answers to the questions thank you and have a great day (8/20/2008)
Question: on second look your weight looks right if not a little high just need to know when you want to move and what type of keel (8/20/2008)
Response: Ok, sorry im getting back to you so late. Thanks for the bid it sounds reasonable. First the weight, the stated weight is 14600 with keel. I live aboard so my stuff adds to that some. the beam i listed is wrong its 10'-10"... its a fin keel and is 11'6" from bottom to the top of the rail... the 11'6" is a little fuzzy because Catalina only gives the measurements on a cradle design page and I can't figure if thats with or without the cradel. The mast length is 42' or 43'. I am trying to get to Corpus Christi in January but i'm flexible after 1 Nov. (8/21/2008)
Response: ok sounds great I will be able to accomodate you no problem, sometime this winter is fine I normally don't book that far out due to fuel and such, but now I take anything I can get, this price is for right now or within a month we can make a deal whenever you want but at this far out there may be a liablity of a fuel surcharge which I never do but as an example if fuel were to go up 1.00 per gallon that would be a 200-250 surcharge I would only charge the difference nothing more. one more question.....fin keel wahts the draft? Thanks MRL (8/22/2008)
Response: the surcharge is fine with me. i'm looking at the 1st week in December. The corpus christi city marina has a yard and lift so thats my final destination. i plan to contact them soon and at least make sure there are no problems. anything in that area you know about and would make your life easier? I figure Diversified which is across the bay from my marina for the haul out and de-mast. I can let this uship bid expire and contact you directly or accept it depending on what you want. (8/23/2008)
Response: according to the rules, I cannot give you my contact info or they will suspend my account, of course they are in business too. I wish I knew what marina you were at but I gotta play by the rules here sometimes this site is a lifesaver, in all likeliness if your boat is in ft myers your marina has my card, I am Naples based, and have used all of them I believe. As far as a marina in corpus I have only dealt with one there I cant remember the name but I didnt take their card for a reason they don't make my life easy, but I do have people in the area that can give me a reference, that corpus city marina is a different one and wouldn't mind trying them out to see for future. On the ft myers side Gulf Marine ways and supply is top notch and fairly priced. (8/23/2008)
Question: Hello we could do an inwater delivery on this vessel for you if this is an option please send me a little info on her and I will submit our low bid. I would need to know what size motors she has and how many knots she can turn and how many GPH of fuel she burns. Thank you looking forward to hearing back from you. (8/23/2008)
