I have spent several years in AA county and have eaten at Cantlers many time. My question, do you ship steamed craps? I live in Alabama. Crabs could be shipped from BWI to Huntsville IAP. I woudl like to get a bushel by the end of May. My daughter misses the blue shell crabs more then the rest of the family. My contacts who use your facility are the Sabo’s and the Eads who live in Severna Park and Cape St Claire. Thanks, let me know what the cost would be for a bushel.
Regards Ed
