I'm contemplating buying a Tollycraft, which costs more in the PNW (I presume it's because they were built here). There appear to be some bargains in the mid-west and east coast, but, of course, there's the cost of hauling it back here. <br />Anyone have an idea of costs? Say, a 26' weighing about 9000 lbs?

Re: Cost of hauling long-distance

Are you talking about hauling it youself or having it picked up and delivered to you?<br />Most haulers charge about $1.50 a mile.

I'm talking about having it hauled here by someone else. <br />Hmmm....3000 miles X $1.50.... Boat better be a good deal, eh? :eek:

I had a 26'boat haulded from Ft.Lauderdale to Massachusetts 1500 miles back in July at a cost of $1300.00<br />Some haulers wanted as much as $2800.00<br />Go to www.askjeeves.com aand type in boat hauling.
