Matt - I used Forward Air (as suggested) when I relocated to San Diego from NY. $75 in 2003, no issues. I wrapped the kayak in a heavy duty tarp and duct tapped it secure. It took about 2 weeks to arrive. At that time, they charged based on weight and not dimension. Hope that helps.

When I worked in the industry we used Forward Air. They have hub locations at many major airports, which you can ship to & pickup from and save alot of money & time over residential delivery.

Wow.....50-150 bucks doesn't sound too bad. Definitely makes it worth taking my own yak. That way I don't have to worry about finding a new one there and then having to spend more money rigging it up and then selling it before I come home. Thanks a lot guys.
