Need Help Selecting/Buying 16" plow to Ship to Hawaii

[plsmith247]

Hi, I appreciate all the good advice on these forums. I have a B7800 4wd hydrostatic kubota. I have a 5-acre gently sloping farm I just bought with very deep sandy loamy soil and no rocks whatsoever. It does have sod, and I'm doing my best to kill that with roundup and mowing. My pH is 5.1 and this pH continues down very deep (also most all nutrient levels are low with the exception of abundant iron). I want to incorporate a lot of lime and similar materials (crushed coral is available here locally), as deep as possible. What I am thinking is that with my tractor and these conditions i would be best with a 16" or 18" one-bottom plow with coulter wheel. I need to get a good one, and the right one, sight unseen, because the shipping to this location on Hawaii is going to cost just as much as the plow. I would very much appreciate any tips and/or suggestions for who to buy this plow from and what plow to buy. I would pick it up at the freight dock in Hilo, Hawaii (preferable) or Kona, Hawaii. You can reply here or email me to plsmith247 at gmail com. Thanks!!!
