Help & FAQ's
Once an order has been shipped, you will normally receive e-mail notification along with the order tracking number. Orders shipped directly from manufacturers may not have tracking numbers immediately available.
Making Changes to Your Order
Our business offices are open M-F from 7am-4pm PST. We are only able to make changes during our business hours. Most orders are processed electronically and can not be modified or canceled after the order has been placed. We will make our best effort to modify or cancel your order, but we are not always able to do so.
Once an order ships, it cannot be canceled and must be treated as a return.
Special orders or orders containing a large quantity of items may incur a cancellation fee to cover the cost of procuring items from a supplier or manufacturer. Shipping fees will not be refunded for cancelled orders that have already shipped.
To calculate the time for your package to arrive, add the estimated "ships out" time to the transit time for the selected carrier and/or delivery service.
For example: You ordered a product with a ships out time of 3 Days and you chose UPS Ground which takes 1-5 business days to arrive. Your package should arrive in 8 business days. If the shipment and reciept of the order is time critical (i.e. vessel repairs or pending voyages) please call us to place your order so we can better assist your specific needs.
Times are expressed in business days, excluding holidays. During periods of high activity such as approaching holidays, delivery times may be longer than indicated and inventories may not be current. Additional delays may be encountered.
Although we try to maintain up-to-date order "ships out" times, these estimates are subject to change.
International Shipments will incur additional processing time. Orders with multiple products may be consolidated from different domestic warehouses. This may add a 2-7 day delay prior to shipment.
Your order may ship in separate boxes or from multiple warehouses. Shipping dates may change due to changes in supply or freight scheduling. In most cases, orders will be held until all items are available to ship.
Holiday Closures
The following holidays we are closed and will not process orders until the following buisness day: New Years Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Independance Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Friday After, Christmas Eve / Day
Shipping times are estimates only. Times may vary depending on warehouse location, shipping carrier, and customs if any. Not all methods of shipping are available in all areas.

Transit Time
The number of days, excluding weekends and holidays, that a package is in transit from pickup (Ship Date) to delivery.
Ship Date
The day that your package is tendered to UPS or FedEx and begins the journey to its destination.
Delivery Time
Other than time-definite air deliveries, shipments are generally delivered anytime between the hours of 9am and 7pm (and sometimes later in certain locations) to residences, and by close of business for commercial addresses. UPS / FedEx cannot schedule a specific delivery time within that window. Up to three delivery attempts will be made, excluding weekends and holidays. In the US and Canada, for residential deliveries that require a signature, you can leave instructions for the driver if no one will be home. For example, you can ask that the shipment be delivered to a neighbor who will be home. If an adult signature is required and the sender has instructed us not to leave the shipment with a neighbor, UPS will make another delivery attempt on the next business day. Shipments that don't require a signature can be left in a safe place at the driver's discretion. This could include the front porch, side door, back porch, or garage area.
