Moving a kayak overseas.... unfinished!!!????

Okay, timing is everything, and this time I missed it. I have to (okay, GET to) move to St. Thomas, USVI. The problem? My kayak is unfinished. I will only be able to finish stripping the deck. I seriously doubt I will make it to any 'glassing, but if I do it will only be the outside. If I wrap it tightly with plastic and keep it on the frame, could I ship it:

A. In a wooden crate (costs more)

B. On top of my car (company pays to ship the car)

Thanks,
Malcolm
P.S. Any info on homes in St. Thomas much appreciated as well. Also looking for '97 and up Jeep Wrangler Sport for sale when I get there if anyone knows of one.
