I’m looking to ship my surfski, an Epic V7, from the Netherlands to El Salvador, in a shared container. I have never seen a surfski in Salvadoran waters, my V7 might just be the first. Please correct me if I’m wrong. I’d love to connect with paddling Salvadorans.

Does anyone have any experience shipping a surfski, in a shared container, over a large distance? I’m particularly interested in a rough idea of the cost.  How much did you pay and from where-to-where did you ship.

When reviewing prospective shipping cost quotes, I’d like to have a better idea of which are too good to be true and which are outlandishly high.

Many Thanks,

Maarten

Well, from the netherlands it would be like 4-5x times farther, but I got my ski shipped from Florida to Panama (+/- 2000km) for 600$ everything included. If Salvador has strict import fees you might be adding +/- 1000$ to whatever the shipping co. quotes.
