Insurance
Transit Insurance is included within the shipping cost. This cover is inclusive of transport from the factory until it leaves our freight forwarder’s control. This means that the moment you, your customs agent or your local transport company takes possession, the insurance provided by our freight forwarder lapses.
We strongly recommend that you arrange appropriate levels of insurance for your Vortex Pod Racer effective from when it leaves our forwarders control.
