Packaged for safe transit

Pre-dispatch inspection on every order

Where possible, motors are freighted in original manufacturer packaging engineered to protect the engine during transport. Each motor is visually inspected before dispatch. We use freight carriers with experience handling marine and engine equipment, not general parcel handlers.

If your motor arrives damaged

Contact us within 48 hours

Inspect on delivery and note any visible damage on the carrier's delivery docket before signing. If you find concealed damage after unpacking, contact us within 48 hours of delivery at info@waveengines.com.au with your order number and photos. Do not operate the motor if you suspect transit damage. We manage the freight claim with the carrier on your behalf.
