Hi Guys,
What's the best way to get it there?
Load my open trailer in a container and have it trucked to east coast?
What port?
Recommended shiping line?
Recommended broker? Do I need one?
Any idea of overall cost?
Any help appreciated,
JJ


I am driving from CA to FLA, hopefully in time for Sun'N'Fun in order
to tow a new glider back. *I could tow one to the East Coast for you,
(or anyone else??) at a great savings. *I was getting rail quotes for
a 40' container almost $5000, L.A. to Melbourne. *I could deliver it
to a shipping departure in FLA. *Check on shipping rates from Fla. to
Brazil. *Start with Matson and Horizon.--Dennis


Thanks Dennis,
Buyer inspection early next week and hopefully a handshake with the
passing of 'coin-of-the realm', then airworthiness for export
inspection and cert + de-regestering, etc......................not
sure of the timing. Will keep your offer in mind.
