[QUOTE="jethro, post: 458670, member: 12381"] I know to pull, dry dock and launch back in spring our 30' Southport it's about $2000 on the coast of Maine. I would assume location makes a big difference in price. You will be buying a pretty expensive trailer for that big boat and I don't know what a tractor costs to rent but I would imagine it not to be cheap. The 100 gallon tank doesn't sound that far off to me. I don't really even know what motor is in the Southport exactly but last time I filled it it was $450 in diesel and I had less than a few inches in the tank so I'm thinking ours is maybe 150 gallons or so? We burn less than 2 gallons an hour at about 15 knots, so that is a lot of motoring. See if the seller can tell you what it burns per hour, you may be surprised when you do the math. [/QUOTE]
