Ok Robert,
You are correct Robert. No road connections up my way. Only way in and out
is by air. We have a lot of shipping up here during the summer (July to
October) but believe it or not, it is often more of a hassle and more
expensive to get stuff out in and out by ship than by air. The
administrative process for shipping things in and out by sea is mind
boggling. I had a friend who needed to ship in a pick-up truck several years
ago. He was able to get it flown in cheaper and faster than by ship. Go
figure.
I will dig out the magazines and weigh them today and then come up with an
estimate which I will communicate to you off list.
cheers,
Robert
