Puuleease don't talk like that. Seattle to Houston is 2500 miles, so
no,
$10,700 doesn't sound too out of line.

over 4 dollars a mile.

The escort adds $1-$1.30 per mile. A line haul of $3 per mile for an
oversize load is about normal. I assume that's including permits, which
some outfits charge $65 per state.

Jeeeeezzzzeeee do they send a jar a vasaline with the bill?

The boat in current condition is only worth 20K.

Did they mention a fuel surcharge?

Dont know, after he said 10,700 I kinda of zoned him out.



It's only 9 foot tall. You tell me.

At 9' H you'd at least need a drop deck (3' high) . So finding a cheap flat
bed is out.

Figures.

You should use a sunscreen Scotty. Or a hat, or both.

Yes, dear, you sound just like my wife.

Well some guy came thru the marina the other day and stopped to talk.
He found while in the carriabean that he had melonomia, skin cancer.
It spred to all his limpnoids, neck, spine and he went thru hell
(surgery & kemo) and had some nasty looking scars. He convinced me to
go visit a dermotoligist and have a few small moles on my back checked
out. He said it started on him as just an itchy spot on his neck. He
had to quit crusing and spend a very large amout of his savings
fighting the cancer. Growing up in Texas I can not remember the number
of times Ive been sun burned. Now days I try to keep covered as much
as I can.
