What about shipping and boat delivery?

Despite their size, we are able to ship most boats safely and inexpensively. For the Hobie Getaway, the safest way to ship is on a dedicated trailer.

Our team will fully assemble your boat (to the extent possible for transportation) before arranging delivery to you. Shipping rates vary based on where you are located but will be calculated in the shopping cart. Due to dealer territory restrictions, West Coast Sailing reserves the right to cancel an order if shipping into another dealers territory.
