Anybody know roughly what that would cost? www.TuffSkinz.net www.basscat.com �It�s all in your head. It doesn�t matter if your 6 or 60. You can participate in this sport."-Rick Clunn

Just get one of these big talkers to just run it over there for you. I shipped my car from L.A to Maui several years back about $600 and my dad sold his 1950 ford pick up on eBay to a guy in England who shipped it there. Bet it�s close to $1000 but probably have to deliver to a port on east coast. weber

It would take 6-9 months to get there and I�m sure the owner would like to eventually use it. The Bass Cat on the other hand could handle this no problem. Last edited by C130; 08/18/18 01:05 PM.

He has a guy who buys some of them then ships them to Japan they cost on average 10-12K a boat to get there. And for some reason can�t have power poles mounted and graphs. Can�t remember the reason. 2013 Phoenix 920xp
