Yes, you may return something. Anything, actually, other than custom embroidery, digital files (PDFs) and full-sized boat kits.
Of course, this doesn't mean used / worn items.
No special authorization, secret codes, forms, or permission is needed to return. Just include a note with the returned item so we know if you want to exchange, get a credit or refund. If you didn't like the item, we'd appreciate hearing that as well.
Shipping charges: you get to pay the return shipping (unless we messed-up.) If the item is returned for an even exchange, you get to pay the shipping back to us, but we'll pay the regular domestic shipping to get the exchanged item back to you. If you are outside the US, you will get to pay the return shipping, and any customs-duties fees we incur to receive the items back, would be deducted from your refund.
Send to The WoodenBoat Store, attn: Returns Queen Jody,  PO Box 78, Brooklin, ME 04616.
