A 40' boat would be about $400 and would take less than a day.

Called Bottom Savers. You may have dropped a "1" from in front of your $400 price tag for a 40' boat. Mr. Musto told me he would do my 28' hull for $840! Outside of saying I heard about him from a guy from Titusville I felt we had nothing further to discuss.
