Title: Marine Surplus, Used Boat Parts - MA, NH
Post by: Bubba the Pirate on May 07, 2009, 05:52:28 PM
In July, I am going to hit a Music Festival with my Brother who lives in Boston.  We will spend a weekend out in Northwestern Mass. not too far from New Hampshire and New York.  I have 8 or 9 days off around the weekend do to my schedule.  I could hit the east coast before heading back home. 

Does anyone know any good Marine Surplus or Used Boat Parts places in MA or NH or possibly RI??   I am looking for some opening portlights and possibly an anchor and who knows, we're always looking, right? 

If there is a good one on Lake Erie somewhere between Niagara and Detroit, I could hit that on the way home too. 

Thanks!

Newport, RI has a few stores.

See the list at GOB's website (http://goodoldboat.com/resources_for_sailors/consignment_stores.php)

There's also a good one called Marine Specialties in Provincetown--but that might be a bit far to the east for you (can't go any farther without hitting Portugal).

This store used to be on Fells Point in Baltimore, where they had a great following. I haven't been there since they moved to Massachusetts, but I hear it's even better now.

My brother is in Hingham, so P'town wouldn't be 'that' far.   Maybe I'll get there and give a report. 

Thanks all!  Grog to ya both so far.
