- Orders containing only clearance items
- Customized special orders made to your detailed requirements
- Sails and boats
- Long tracks, spinnaker poles, whisker poles, and large tubes
- Oversized or heavy items, including items that require less-than-truckload (LTL) freight shipping
Standard Shipping
- UPS and FedEx Ground: Delivery usually takes 2 to 5 business days for in-stock orders.
- USPS: Allow an additional 3 business days beyond the standard shipping time.
- Saturday delivery: UPS and FedEx deliver on Saturdays only for overnight shipments sent on Friday. Additional charges may apply.
Oversized Items and Freight Shipping
Oversized items, such as whisker poles, spinnaker poles, and tracks longer than 8 feet, require freight shipping. The estimated shipping cost is $500, depending on the destination.
For freight deliveries, provide a commercial address, such as the marina, yacht club, or boatyard where your sailboat is located. The recipient must sign for the shipment upon delivery.

Dyneema® core: lowest weight with the highest breaking strength
Polyethylene which is the raw material for Dyneema® is changed on a molecular basis and in addition is stretched in one direction. These stretched molecule chains increase the breaking strength and decrease the elongation. Therefore Dyneema® has the lowest stretch at break of all synthetic fibers. Dyneema® has a very low specific weight and is therefore buoyant. The only disadvantage is that it creeps more than some other raw materials.
This means the cover can easily be removed from the rope ends without reducing the breaking strength due it's fiber shows a permanent elongation under load. Dyneema® is used as core material in high-tech ropes. The core will carry the load whereas the cover is just used for abrasion and light protection. Therefore Dyneema® it has too a good abrasion resistance and resistance against sunlight.
