Question: Not the boat. I meant the trailer width. Most pontoon trailers are narrower than the boat. I needed the width of the trailer so I know whether or not it would fit on my trailer. Can you find that out for me? (6/13/2008)
Response: OK finally got the info you ask for. 94" outside to outside. Also I won the bid so make you best bid. Not sure how you get the trailer & boat loaded on your fladbed. (6/15/2008)
Response: My trailer deck is just over 7ft wide. It is also a tilt deck so loading her would not be a problem. I have done quite a few of these before. My biggest concern is the wheel base and the weather conditions in the area of pick up. I can handle the wheelbase issue but the weather kind of worries me. At any rate my figure would be right at 1500.00. (6/15/2008)
Response: Your sytems sounds like it would work ok. The seller has asured me the weather in the area is not a problem ( not in any of the flood or damage areas ). Also stated he is less than 5 minutes off of Interstate 280. Said he would help with loading.
Your price estimate is still a couple hundred high though. (6/16/2008)
Response: A couple hundred high based on what? (6/16/2008)
Response: Just starting to get estimates and bids two lowest so far are 1225 and 1340 ( not confirmed yet, or referances checked ) Also I think you are the only one that would haul rather than tow. I like that a little better. (6/16/2008)
Response: Hauling vs towing is a little more labor intensive. Anyone with a hitch can tow. (6/16/2008)
Response: Still doing some checking, ( I have looked at your site, LOOKS GOOD ) I see you must do a lot of boats per your photo line up. I assume the trailer with the two boats is the one your talking about. One thing I would need to know is your schedule for pickup and delivery. This boat dosn't have a spare tire so you just got one more good mark for Haul vs Tow. (6/17/2008)
Response: I do mostly boats, RVs and specialty items. That trailer you saw with the two boats on her is the one I was talking to you about. My schedule is open during the mid July timeframe. I did have an opening for about a week ago but it got filled recently. Delivery time would consist of about 2-3 days, depending on the weather. (6/17/2008)
Response: Like what I'm seeing so far other than your time frame is a killer. Seller tells me I have to remove it by Friday of NEXT week. Otherwise you are solid in the top 4 shippers for my type of shipment. (6/17/2008)
Response: Back when we first started talking I had the immediate opening but it has since filled. I won't know of a sudden opening here for the next couple of days. (6/17/2008)
Response: Let me know if you open up, back in the game. I am looking at making the run myself I'm down to three of you and not real sure about the other two yet. Go ahead and submit your bid just incase. (6/17/2008)
Response: Let me confirm what I have going so far and I will place my bid. I only like to enter bids when I am 100% sure just to be on the safe side ( cancellations don't look good on TSPs profile ). I will keep you updated. (6/17/2008)
Response: I beleave in first come first serve. You have responded not only to this boat but also others that I have bid on. I like your setup At this stage if you loose out it will be a matter of time frame. (6/17/2008)
Response: I, too, believe in first come first serve but I have given my word to the other folks that I would be available for their run if they were ready to roll for that timeframe. Someone left them hanging before and I assured them I wouldn't do the same. So to make a long story short I have to at least keep my word be at the ready until they tell me otherwise. I will know very soon. (6/18/2008)
Response: Thanks for your time< I have taken another Bid. (6/18/2008)
