That’s an absolutely awesome looking solution for travel!Old string, but I thought I would post my "Pelican Vault 800 Case" I recently purchased and took on flight. I used an electric carving knife to make cut outs in the foam layers. Worked great, no issues.

@SailAwry - see aboveThat’s an absolutely awesome looking solution for travel!
The vault 800 indicates that it is a 4 layer foam solution, would you mind taking some pictures of how you laid out the various foam layers?
It looks like you have the tiller/lines/extension/rudder in one layer (possibly with wind vane?)
And It looks like the centerboard also in a cutout layer of its own? Did you do a cutout that didn’t go all the way through the layer?
Flying with ice skates as checked baggage is usually allowed by most airlines, including American Airlines.
