Cost Paid at Start (US $): 
37 euro
Comments: 

You have to buy the tickets the day before and start getting all your paper stamped. Apparently all the people that work in the port will have to stamp your papers, so it is a very long process (we went there twice in 2 different days for a total of more than 7hours of running around to get photocopyes and stamps).

The ferry leaves Monday and Wednesday at 9pm (on the paper, actually it leaved at about 11pm) and arrives 12hours later.

The expensive part is to get your motorbike inside the Emirates. We payed 1300 AED - 290 euro to temporary import the bike for tourism purpose only.
At the Sharjah custom try to do everything as fast as possible because after 4 pm is considered evening time so you will have pay more than double the price for all the importation charges.
