Nice! I was out at the sand bar a couple weeks ago. Know anyone that has been able to sail out the channel? Wind always seems to come straight down it, and I'm not good enough to tack back and forth in either narrow channel.

It was shipped here by BWY. I ordered it while I was in Afghanistan. BWY took care of all of the mod's. They also brought the boat to LA, California, and put it on Pasha. That is a shipping company that has boats with giant parking garages on it. It was delivered a few days after I got back from Afghanistan.

bwygirl--I live in San Diego and store my boat right next to a giant Pasha cargo facility in National City.

How much does it cost to have them take a boat to Hawaii?

It was $4000 for the boat and then a fuel surcharge for what ever fuel is at the time off shipping ($1600 for mine) so I paid about $5600-$5700)

Mine cost about the same to ship here, and I also used Pasha. Bought my :macm: from Arena Yachts, and they drove it down to San Diego for loading on the ship.
