Import Tips
• Provide engineering drawings showing absence of motor transom or sail rigging to substantiate non-powered classification
• Label with capacity and weight specs; ensure compliance with USCG flotation standards if applicable for imports
• Avoid bulk shipments without individual packaging details, as customs may scrutinize for incomplete vessel status
