Albemarle Boats Cares About Accessibility

April 6, 2021

Let us take care of your boating needs. We want you to connect with us. We are referring to everyone from all walks of life. Our goal is to make it easy for all people including those with hearing, vision, or any other disability and want them to learn about our boats, our philosophy, and ultimately buy their next boat if they so desire.

If you have difficulty learning about or ordering from our online store, we invite you to contact us via telephone (252-482-7600) or email (KMize@albemarleboats.com) or even a letter (Albemarle Boats, 140 Midway Drive, Edenton, North Carolina 27932) and our friendly staff will gladly assist you.

We work very hard to provide an easy-to-use online experience for all our visitors. We believe all of our website visitors should be able to easily research online at https://www.albemarleboats.com/ regardless of device type or the need for assistive technology like a screen reader, font magnification, translation or voice recognition software.

To ensure this, Albemarle Boats is committed to compliance with Level AA success criteria of the Website Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1), an international standard measure of accessibility success. Our website and digital marketing have been developed with careful consideration of these guidelines and is continuously being enhanced to make our technology more accessible and user-friendly.

We have tested our website to ensure that we meet or exceed Level AA of the WCAG 2.1 Standard.

If you have any questions or would like to report any issues related to the accessibility features of our website, please contact us at KMize@albemarleboats.com.
