Towing a 26 foot boat from SD to La Paz


I'm a new member, currently living in Colorado and building in La Paz. Looking at a 26 foot Bayliner in San Diego but I don't have the rig to pull it. Anybody coming down that way empty willing to bring the boat down. It's an 8.5 foot beam, so no permits necessary. I'll get insurance, pay for fuel and a reasonable fee. I'm looking sometime between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Great site, got turned onto it by bajadoc, an old friend who is just finishing his place in Ensenada.
Does anyone have any different ideas for transportaion???

If you can get it to the ABC bus station in TJ, just hook up to the stern. They won't even know you're there and you'll make La Paz in about three hours what with they way they drive.

Welcome to NOMAD, rickster.

Yes, rickster is a friend of mine, but, doesn't have my character flaws.

B.R., Suggest your followup with answers to Bob & Susan's questions here. But, as you can see, lots of help is already headed your way.
