  • - Shipping -

Free Shipping - West Coast Sailing offers Free Shipping on most, but not all, items. Generally speaking, if your box can fit in a UPS truck, we will ship it for free! We use both UPS Ground and the Postal Service to send packages near and far. If your ship to address requires one or the other, please let us know.

There are a few items we can not ship for free:
Expedited Orders – We can ship most orders Next Day, 2 day or 3 day air with UPS. In an effort to reduce costs for our customers as much as possible, we will help subsidize the shipping by paying a portion of the actual cost.  When placing a rush order, it's always good to call to confirm shipping price and delivery time frame. If you need expedited shipping on a web order, please leave us a comment in the shipping field and we will contact you to confirm details and cost.

International Orders – These usually ship USPS Priority or Express and are quite reasonably priced. Size and content restrictions vary from country to country. We'll check to insure compliance with shipping regulations. Our webstore will quote a shipping cost via USPS based on items and destination. If you encounter problems in this process, send us a quick email and our team will resolve the issue for you as quickly as possible.
There is no tax charge by West Coast Sailing. However, international customers will be responsible for any applicable import duties, fees, or taxes.
Oversized Items – Certain items are too big to ship via UPS or USPS, including masts & booms, most trailers and some other items. We are still able to ship oversized items, but where applicable, the webstore will clearly alter you to the possibility of any shipping charges.  Our team will contact you to confirm cost and delivery time frame.

Boats – Boats are brought in on special cargo shipments. We have the ability to ship some of our boats, but not all. If you would like a quote to ship a boat to you, just call. 

Hobie Cat Products – We are contractually not allowed to offer free shipping on Hobie products. The webstore will quote UPS and USPS shipping methods for Hobie orders at checkout.
