Don't get mad guys....

...but I have another shipping question. I know, I know, but I couldn't find an answer in any of the previous threads.

Is there any reasonably priced way to ship a boat overseas? Europe-ish? If are not in a time crunch and don't want to pay twice the boat's worth? I"ve been quoted anywhere from 500-800$. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I have shipped to Europe several times with www.freightquote.com.
Anywhere from $250-$400

Hope that helps,
-Sean

Yea, freightquote is probably your best bet. You could also try fedexfreight, but Fedex is known to be a bit over priced. You could also try International Transit Service, Inc.

This might be a goose chase, but it's worth a phone call. Check with Delta Air Freight (and maybe a few other commercial carriers) & get them to give you a quote. The only problem is that someone has to be there to pick it up at the terminal.

I have to assume that you tried sportsexpress? If not, make sure to give them a holler. From Hawaii to Boulder was only 120.00

This isn't "overseas" but when we flew to Costa Rica in February America West booked boats for $80 each way.
