James Lyne Shipment Damage - Christchurch to Vermont Aug 2023
Photos and videos supplied by James Lyne below.
There are multiple signs of abrasion through the packaging and the surface coating of the skis, as well as impact/crushing damage in areas along both hull and deck of both vessels.

Addict Ski
Condition of Packaging
Bucket seat chip and crack
Abrasion to deck
Abrasion and chips to bow
Addict structural damage , no sign of packaging damage , thus it is believed they destroyed both boats via over-tightening ratchet straps.

Packaging condition of superstar, again no packaging damage in stern area where structural damage occurred , again very likely ratchet strap over tightening
