It depends on what kind of boat...new or used and shipping is a matter of size .

With used boats u can manage to safe a lot of money . with new boats its kind of tuff to do !!!!!

Why not stay loyal and buy British.

Peace of mind in what you are buying, no hassle on import costs.

But that was not the point of this bashing of yours... u said u race me in my boat with yours !!!!!?????

if u just wanna play...then we can do that but that will only proof that i am a better racer then u ..not so much that the US or english boats are better..


Oh well..if u dont even understand yourself, how will others ???????

So you scraped an engine together yet, Scotty

First fix your boat so it can be raced with ..then start bragging.
