Building Magayon II

A Trailer and two Road Trips

The challenge was to get the hulls from Bohol to Lake Taal. The first quote we got from Andi Smith’s boatyard for shipping them via sea transport from Bohol to Manila and then by road to Talisay amounted to US$ 4,300. A rediculously high amount. Mavic then started getting inquriries from different shipping companies, all the initial quotes were in the US$ 1,000 range but when they came back with a more detailled offer it had usually increased to US$ 4,000 ++.

Fed up with this we then decided to have the trailer, which we would need anyway, and drive it down to Bohol to pick up the hulls.

See the video for loading the port hull at Andi Smith’s boatyard on top of the trailer.
