Well, I don't see much of a bargain? Try http://www.marine.com/
also for good prices...

BTW, I have been very happy with Boatfix..

Yes I purchased my Raytheon stuff from them a few years ago.

It was a good transaction no complaints.

I was just wondering...I ordered a few things from boatfix.com ...no problems there..
but this might be another option if boatfix doesn't have the parts I need or want...just wondering if they were any good or not.... :argh arrr

I just received the 2005 Master Catalogs from the following:
Boater'sWorld - West Marine - Overton & Carbela

In comparing prices over all, I have found that there are two
that offer the best deals on the same items ....

Boater'sWorld and Boatfix
Boater'sWorld has expanded greatly this year both in the area
of boating and fishing.

Westmarine is out to lunch on alot of items.
As an example, I went Saturday to get an hourmeter. The price
was as follows on the exact same item:
Boater'sWorld - $42.99
West Marine - $62.95
The stores are less than a mile or so apart .....

Boater'sworld is really expanding this year with 14 new stores
that includes a new one in Seattle .... :lol:
It seems that they have alot of stores in your area.

Bellevue - Bellingham - Bremerton - Everett - Olympia
Seattle/Tukwila - Tacoma & soon another in Seattle

Al..I go to both...but westmarine is on the way to where we have our boat stored....
boaters world is the other direction...so if I'm in the area...I hit boaters world....
then we have Bay marine..this is an older place that has been here for a hunerd yrs....the guys that work there are old boaters and really know just about anything you can dream up for a question.....the will 99.5% of the time have the part or can tell you where to get it or at the very least...be able to order it.......they are right close to westmarine........
so this is just another avenue for parts.....I get cabellas and overton's too......they are pretty good if you want to get alot of fishing stuff and ski....
thanks for the input.. :argh arr
