Ocean Shipping Information

Cars must be empty, except for factory installed equipment. You may have no more than 1/4 tank of gas, and all keys must accompany cars. All cars must be in running condition for roll on/roll off service.

Custom regulations require that you have the original title along with three copies of the title, front and back. THESE MUST ACCOMPANY THE VEHICLE TO THE PORT. If there are any liens against the vehicle, a notarized letter from the lienholder authorizing the export of the vehicle must also accompany the car.

Also included in the price is catastrophic insurance. This insurance is for any catastrophe that may happen, i.e. the ship sinks.
Tips for shipping boats.
Measuring Your Boat-To accurately measure your boat please use these guidelines:

Overall Length include bow pulpits, swim platforms, motor brackets and the length of the motors or outdrives in the raised position.

Overall Height is measured from the bottom of the keel to the highest non-removable part of the vessel.

Beam is measured as the widest point of the boat including anything attached to the sides of the vessel. You may have to mark the wide points on the ground by a drop line, and then measure those points.

Weight is the fully loaded weight with all equipment, trailer and water / fuel, if applicable.
