Postby claudex » March 4th, 2014, 8:58 pm

Hi everyone,

I moved my Carver 366 from Jacksonville FLA to Bribie Island Australia. Obviously I used a freighter via Panama for the move. The tanks on the carver are verrrry limited.
I now live on a waterfront property with my pride and joy out on my pontoon. It is really livin'the deream and that is the name of the vessel Livin'The Dream
Now that I've joined the forum, I hope you can all be my 'First Mate' and help me as I am in a very remote location where services on a scale of 1 to 10 would not register.
I will be posting my first help request later today for your advice.
Cheers for now

Welcome!
You expat now? How's the cost of living there?
And if you don't mind, what does it cost to move a bopat as you did? Did you have to wait until the entire "mothership" was at capacity to move the boat? I'd be interested in the process, and if you have px, post them!

Sorry for being a pest, but this intrigues me.
Thanks
