FAQ

ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate). It's a UV-stable engineering thermoplastic built for outdoor and marine use. Same family as ABS, but it doesn't yellow or get brittle in the sun the way ABS does.

FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) is a professional manufacturing process. Engineering-grade thermoplastic is fused together at high temperature to build the finished part. The same general process is used in aerospace and medical prototyping.

Modern manufacturing in the USA looks very different than it did even 20 years ago. Today, manufacturers have to be ultra flexible, fast, and able to adapt rapidly to address customer needs. That's why we chose the FDM process. It lets us iterate on designs quickly, run small batches, and ship a better product than the molded plastic alternatives.

Yes. ASA was developed for outdoor use. It handles UV, salt, heat, and rain. We run our own gear on our own boats in Florida. If something doesn't last, we redesign it.

No. ASA stays dimensionally stable well past the temperatures a boat deck reaches in direct sun. We test in Florida summer conditions before any product ships.

Pensacola, Florida. Designed by us, manufactured by us, shipped by us.

Each product page lists exact compatibility. Our remote holders are model-specific because every remote has its own footprint. If you're not sure, send us the model number and we'll confirm before you order.

Absolutely. ShoreWright products are designed for saltwater from the ground up. The ASA holder body is UV-resistant and saltwater-safe, and we use 304 stainless steel screws that won't rust. We run our own gear on our own boats here on the Gulf Coast. A fresh water rinse after each trip is all the maintenance you need.

Check the listing. Some products ship with a suction cup, others are sold as the holder only so you can choose your mount. Suction cups are also sold separately.

Fresh water rinse after every trip. Mild soap if it needs it. Skip the solvents, acetone, and abrasive scrubbers. They can dull the surface or attack the plastic.

If you pump the lever and the colored indicator band stays visible, the cup hasn't pulled a full seal. The fix is almost always surface prep:

• Clean the surface thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol and let it dry completely. Wax, polish, salt residue, and sunscreen will all break a seal.
• Make sure the surface is smooth and non-porous. Glossy gelcoat, glass, and polished fiberglass are ideal. Textured, painted, or vinyl-wrapped surfaces will not hold.
• Try a different spot on the boat. Even a small flaw in the gelcoat can prevent a seal.
• Re-seat the cup. Press it down flush, then pump the lever until the indicator band disappears.

If you've worked through all of that and still can't get a seal, email us at support@shorewright.com and we'll get it sorted.

The holder body is built to last. Every ShoreWright product carries a lifetime warranty against fading and warping. If yours fades or warps under normal use, we'll replace it.

The suction cups we ship are industrial-grade, built for marine duty, and will hold up season after season with basic care.

Most orders ship within 2-5 business days. You'll get a tracking number by email when it goes out.

We currently ship to the US, Canada, the Bahamas, Australia, and New Zealand. More markets coming.

Reach out through our contact page with your order number and a photo. We'll make it right.

A husband-and-wife shop on the Gulf Coast. We're Christopher and Dana, and we design every product ourselves, FDM manufacture them in-house, and ship them out the door from Pensacola, Florida.

Sometimes. If you've got a remote, a piece of gear, or a mounting problem we don't currently solve, send us a message. We'll let you know if it's something we can take on.
