Do you think it weighs that much?
If you want to bid, I could ship it from here and declare a lower value. Let me know

That's handy to know, I've paid about £600 in duties this year. |

I have to say that my interest is up on this little boat
Just to be above board..I may have to have a swing at the paddler just for grins..It does look as if it could be R/C pretty easy just for tiller control...

Hope you get it Mo!
It looks like it has potential, I can imagine it steaming down the Mississippi. (Hope that's spelled right!)

Sweet..that was a nice low price for a steam boat..even a plastic one
 
I do not know if you bid or not Newsteamer...? So I hope I didn't walk on you. I just put it on my Sniper and went to my daughters soccer practice.
The seller is about 100 miles from me and I am tempted to pick it up...but the postage is easy and cheaper than fuel..I sure look forward to this first paddler... even though it is little more than a toy...
-- a little elbow grease should help her look a little better!
