RvT 9 Report post Posted February 6, 2009 I have sent a few Nth over the last couple of years. Option 1 - Toll - Not the safest way as old Railways mentality sometimes but is cheapest ($500 used to be) Option 2 - Jeffs - Best service & safest but dearer ($650 used to be) Option 3 - Not sure if still available but Pacifica (I think) had a sea roll on / roll off service. Cost unsure. Drive home may not be that cost effective when you have to cross the strait with the car plus the airfare, time and petrol costs combined.
