Calling all Cabo's (and other motorboats)


We're sitting on quite a few Chatfield Engineering shaft seals that are priced over half off. They're all brand new never installed and come in a few different sizes.

Spring is Here


It seems that all we need is a little warm weather and the parking lot fills up. Right now we're sitting on tons of finished teak from Cabo yachts. All sorts of cabinets, drawers, frames, boards etc... Come on in and get it before it's gone.

WE'RE BACK!




Made it around the horn in one piece, and now I'm back to work.

Since I've been gone, we've got thousands of pounds of finished teak, hundreds of spools of anchor line, everything but the kitchen sink from Cabo Yachts (refrigeration, shafts, couplers, chocks, fiberglass tubing, hydraulics...) and about $60,000 worth of stainless steel cleats. Spring has sprung and the deals are here.

Headed Round' the Horn


Been a busy January here at the store. I'm off tomorrow to join back up with the Alaska Eagle sailing out of Ushuia to South Georgia Island and on up to Buenos Aires. I'll be gone about 40 days, and if you'd like to follow the trip you can do so here.

Off the Boat, Back to Work


Had a great trip from Easter Island to Chile. Painless passage with steady wind and nothing lost but a spinnaker.

As for the store we're blowing out nautical decor up to 50% off. Get your last minute shopping done at Minneys... much better parking than the mall.

Firsthand Experience



It's been a while since any updates but I've got a pretty good excuse. For the past few weeks I've been gearing up to sail from Easter Island to Puerto Montt, Chile aboard the Alaska Eagle. I will be unable to blog for the store while at sea, but we will be making daily log entries from the boat. If you're interested in following us across the Pacific, click here and select "Leg 2."

See you all December 17th!

How do we keep our prices so low?


Ernie does his own roofing!

More Line Than You Could Shake a Stick At



Searching the world over for deals we came upon six tons of brand new, nylon double braided line for anchoring and dock lines.

The anchor lines come on spools ranging from 100 - 300 feet, in 1/2" to 3/4" all with a stainless thimble and a professional splice.

The dock lines come in 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35 foot lengths, and 1/2" and 5/8" also with a professional eye splice.

Everything is priced to sell at well under half of the retail price. We've got lots but it's moving fast so come by soon.
