WALKER BAY 8 SALE

at HOOPER'S YACHTS

We bought out a distributor's stock of boats, rids and sail kits at
attractive prices and are passing the savings on to you. If you need a WB 8,
or want to add a sail or rid kit to the boat you already own, here's an
opportunity to save. You won't find better prices anywhere. WHILE SUPPLIES
LAST !!!!!
   




SPRING IS AROUND THE CORNER - HOOPER'S HAS WHAT YOU NEED TO PREPARE YOUR
BOAT

WE SPECIALIZE IN SAILBOATS

We sell all that you can find at the big box stores and our prices are
competitive. As a matter of fact, when it comes to sailboat specific items,
we do a better job than the big box stores in terms of inventory. And, we
can apply or install what you buy and we can fix your boat if you can't.  We
specialize in DIY products for those who work on their own boats and we can
show you how and suggest products designed for your project. We have in
house/on site rigging. No need to send cordage out to be spliced 900 miles
away, or rigging to be swaged elsewhere. We do it here and NOW. And, when it
comes to sailboat parts or equipment, our experience cannot be matched to
guide you through the maze of gear.  The big box stores are mostly
powerboaters and haven't a clue what a narrow saddle eye strap is.  Ask them
what you need to make up Shore Power or a back stay adjuster, or tune a B&R
Rig. Powerboaters even come to us to splice their anchor line onto their
Windlass chain because they don't know how to do it at that big box store.
They'd rather send out your anchor line and chain to the main office to get
it done. If you need parts for your traveler, furler, pump, head, antenna,
lights, stove, engine, water heater, trailer, deck hardware - you name it.
We've been in the business for so long we know what that thing that was made
40 years ago is. And we know where to go to get what we don't stock.  You
can count on us. Happy Spring!

THE BOTTOM LINE IS WE HAVE BEEN IN THE BUSINESS FOR DECADES. WE RACE, WE
CRUISE, WE UNDERSTAND OFFSHORE CRUISING (NOT JUST DOWN THE ST. CROIX) AND WE
HAVE A LOT OF KNOW HOW AND KNOW THIS SAILING AREA (AND OTHERS). WE CAN
DIRECT YOU AND CONSULT WITH YOU ON BOAT PURCHASES, WHERE TO SAIL THEM, WHO
TO CALL, MAKE COMPARISONS ON PLACES TO SAIL, BOATS TO BUY, GEAR TO CONSIDER.
WE REALLY ARE EXPERTS IN THE SAILING BUSINESS.

 

BOAT CONSIGNMENT: We sell lots of new boats. We have been told we sell more
new boats than all the local dealers combined. From 8 footers to offshore
giants. Racers, cruisers, daysails, mono hulls, multi hulls, fast, slow,
big, small, ugly, pretty, Bristol, wood, fiberglass, steel, aluminum - you
name it. SAILBOATS.  Already we have sold a lot of used boats this spring
and the weather sucks and we have several offers waiting on the weather to
turn so we can do some surveying. 

 

LOOKING TO SELL YOUR BOAT?  If you don't list it with us, we cannot sell it.
Give us a try. We work hard to sell your used boat and not use it to get
someone in the door and switch them into a new product. We want to sell your
boat and we do - not just locally, but all over the U.S.  We've sold boats
in Canada, Europe, Australia, Belize, Mexico, not just on Minnetonka or Lake
City.  Your boat will be listed on our web site as well as Yachtworld.  We
have been in this business so long, we know people from all over who sell
boats and we work with other dealers.  Our motto is there is a buyer for
every boat. Let us go find them. People walk into our store not knowing what
they want. We understand all the ins and outs of what boats can offer to fit
their needs.

 

LOOKING TO BUY?  We often have as many as 150 boats listed at any given
time. We have a 5 acre boatyard full of used boats and we have boats located
all over our area including specifically Minnesota, Wisconsin, the Dakotas,
Iowa, Canada, Nebraska, and we have listed boats as far away as the Eastern
Seaboard, Florida, Hawai'i and even Tonga.  But, let's be realistic. The
majority are found in the U.S.  And we can learn what you want and if we
don't have it, we can broker it for you and find it.  We also have financing
and can help you get a dock, sailing lessons, find the right marina on that
perfect body of water, or help you if you are a trailer sailor going for
horizons unknown. If you are looking for local sailing waters, we know where
to go and what boat works where and if you have your own ideas, we are good
listeners.

 

TRANSPORTATION: We are even truck drivers.....sort of.  We have good
equipment to haul small and midsized sailboats on cradles or their own
trailers. If you have bigger than we can haul, we can refer you to the big
guys.  We are licensed and registered with the DOT and are compliant with
DOT regulations.

 

STORAGE: WE HAVE A 5 ACRE BOAT YARD FOR WINTER STORAGE OR FOR THE DIY BOAT
OWNER, WE HAVE SEVERAL PEOPLE STORING THEIR BOAT WITH US AS THEY REBUILD IT,
BUILD IT, OUTFIT IT THEMSELVES, ETC.  OR, IF YOU JUST HAVE A TRAILERABLE
BOAT AND WANT AFFORDABLE STORAGE TO LEAVE YOUR BOAT BETWEEN WEEKENDS, ETC.
WE PROVIDE THAT TOO.  COME AND GO AS YOU WISH AND BRING YOUR BOAT BACK WHEN
DONE.
