In a couple of weeks, I will be going to Japan to race.
I checked with the airlines. They said the only info they could give me, was that the total dimensions for checked belongings could not exceed 62" and 50 pounds.
I built a plywood case with TSA locks for my Hammerhead 21. Loaded with the rigger and necessary tools, It is well within the parameters.
What I'm worried about is residue from solvents, and fuel. Also batteries, glow plug boosters, and so on.
In 2001, I made the trip in the opposite direction to run boats with the District 8 boaters. I didn't have any problems then.
I know the Aussies on this forum have plenty of experience travelling with their boats.
Anything that I need to be aware of or any advice in general will be greatly appreciated.
