The boat arrived safe and sound on Tuesday morning, just like Bob said it would. He gave our friend Greg a heads up on arrival time and they coordinated perfectly. Only injury enroute was a lost cover for the hub of the tire/wheel and we have already ordered spares for the Mexico part of the journey from the trailer manufacturer. I guess Bob greased the hub on the trailer regularly and the cap just came off. Chris, aka Carl said this is common.
Regarding Bob of SuperB Transport.... he communicated very well with us every evening as to where the boat was and how the trip was going. We were extremely impressed and would recommend him in a heart beat. For your future information, here is a listing of quotes we got for transport.
Super B - Bob....$2500
A-1 Haul a Boat 866-590-1196..Bill West $2960
Cross World 727-457-8512 Carlos $6500
Joe Gilbert $5700
Richard Miller Freeborn 727-457-8512 $5500
Hope these names and numbers help someone else.
We arrived home to cool fall weather... about 40F in the AM going up to about 65F in the day. Now we are back in a taste of summer again, with yesterday being about 90F. The leaves are starting to turn a bit, so we all know what is coming. Haven't had a killing frost yet, but expect it any day.
Could you send me the email address of the guy in Tempe again so I can get info on boat insurance. The quote from Mexican Auto Insurance company came in at $2000USD, and we have no idea if that is reasonable or not.
Enjoy the race cars and tell Zack not to spend too much money. HAHAHA...even though the hotel room was cheap.
Thanks so much again for all of your help. We really had a great time in Florida and the boat buying experience was a pleasure. You have an open invitation to come visit us in the Baja. We can hardly wait to get there in 3 weeks.
