All shipping charges are estimated. International shipping estimates given at the time of the order are for authorization only. The actual shipping charges will be calculated at the time the order is processed. If your shipment will cost more than the estimate we will contact you for authorization before processing the order. In most cases the "estimate" is higher than the actual charges. We ship international orders via the Post Office, except for Canada which is shipped via UPS Standard. International customers are responsible for all taxes, tariffs, duties or other charges associated with purchasing our products.

Most orders of in stock items are shipped within 1-2 business days from the date they are placed. We ship orders Monday through Friday.

If an item is unexpectedly out of stock and your order will not ship in this time frame we will contact you via e-mail to give you our best estimate on the situation.

**PROP SERVICE: Prop service generally runs 2-3 days, depending on the season. If it will be much longer than this we will e-mail you.

Our shipping charges are the actual cost to ship an item or items to you plus a handling fee for the boxes and packing materials.

Sometimes when ordering many small items the shipping charges can go up even though it seems the items could all be shipped together. Our system is not perfect! If your shipping charges seem too high, let us know. Put a note in the Special Instructions section of the order form and we will check into it before we process your order. If the higher shipping charges are a result of a system issue we will decrease the cost to you.

Yes! We love our international customers :) The only limitation at this time is the maximum box size allowable by the Post Office to your country. MOST LARGE BOATS CANNOT BE SHIPPED TO FOREIGN COUNTRIES AT THIS TIME. Check with us via e-mail on a specific boat or a specific country's size limits.

EFFECTIVE 6/25/07: All international orders must be paid for using an AVS supported credit card or via confirmed PayPal user. Otherwise, we can arrange secure transfer of funds to our bank via bank transfer. We also may require additional documentation to confirm your identity. If this is necessary to process your order we will contact you upon receipt of your order. Unfortunately, recent fraudulent orders have forced this change in policy.

Shipping to some countries carries more risk of fraud and in order to continue serving our international customers we must protect our business. If your country is not listed, we cannot ship there.

If you would consider a possible substitute, just let us know and we will check into that for you.
