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!</SPAN></SPAN></SPAN></div></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></DIV>

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.</SPAN></SPAN></B></SPAN></SPAN></div>

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.</SPAN></SPAN></B></SPAN></SPAN></div>
