passage to Panama
 

We are Cartagena Colombia and would like to know if we have to have a broker to help us ship our bikes to Panama or can we do it ourselves.Next is can anyone tell us of a shipping Com. to use. The nautico club could not help us at this point it is late in season for sailboats so I´ve been told. Also the one or two sail boats that do take bikes and pasajeros are gone. This leaves us with the big companies that only want to send bikes in a big container at 850. dolares which in itself is not horrible but the paper work and time is overwhelming. does anyone have some ideas. We arrived the 16 of Feb. and my friend does´nt have paciencia for to long to wait. It is frustrating knowng that we are not inventing something new, why is it that our goverments have to make it so dificult to travel in a world of technology.
