Steve.
Great Job on packing the 18 HP Johnson. Your shipping method was very well done.
Using the thick foam padding and locking everything in with expanding foam spray
Sealant is an excellent idea for structural integrity. Packing a motor this way takes
Extra time and money, but dealing with an unhappy buyer at the receiving end &
Waiting for shipper to pay a damage claim, if they even will pay? Makes it worth it
In my opinion.
Most Shipping Companies will not even honor the insurance claims today, they just
deny paying the Insurance claim and say it was not packed properly? That is why I
started having UPS pack and ship the motors as they can’t deny a shipping damage
Claim that they packed and shipped, as it was all on them (UPS).
Best Regards,
Bob
