shipping a boat overseas
This is just daydreaming but the recent thread about Nauti dog the Z275 has got my head thinking. (Not always a good thing ;))
This boat would be a little over £17k in old English, which is incredible value. And to cap it off Mrs B loves the look of it....lol the chances of finding a boat like this over here in blighty are next to nothing, but the thought of a holiday in the states checking out boats in a couple of years has always been in the back of my mind. Now to the question! Has anybody sold a boat to an overseas buyer and if so how complicated was it to arrange shipping? |
Re: shipping a boat overseas
Check these guys out, or maybe drop them a line. They specialize in shipping boats overseas.
International Boat Shipping - Ship a Boat from USA. Get Rates. Or, if the NautiDog is for sale through a dealer, they may be able to arrange overseas shipment for you. However, since it's located in Iowa, and on Ebay, I'm guessing that's not an option. At any rate, shipping it over to you WON'T be cheap, i'm guessing $2-5k USD. I would also expect some hangups, especially with CE certification. Getting a boat (built by a company no longer in business) CE certified is a bit of a process... Check out this post from MikeyT. http://www.mariahownersclub.com/foru...u-members.html It would be a great boat for you if you could afford to get it over there! :) |

Re: shipping a boat overseas

Re: shipping a boat overseas
The Dockside Yacht Express looks a little rich for my blood....lol
there's always the holiday home option. as long as there's room for a big Z on the drive :D |
Re: shipping a boat overseas
with the screen removed would a big Z fit in a container on it's side if a craddle was built to carry it?
