I’ll be visiting the US (Miami) by the end of the year.
Just wondering which boating stores I should NOT miss.
Don't need any particular item; just want to see as many products displayed as possible.... then I'll know I need a bunch of stuff :bonk:
Any/all suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
Pedro

Well, not in Miami (and I'm sure they have better shops), but Discount Marine Liquidators is in Ft. Pierce, on US Hwy 1,.... kind of a marine flea market, I could spend hours there :)

With the economy down and sliding there should be some great deals!

I googled the Miami Int'l Boat Show last week and Donzi was not listed in the Exhibitor listing:confused:

Bluewater Books in Fort Lauderdale is always a must visit for me.

Regretfully I cant do that. Kids would be back in school by then. Now traveling to visit family along with my wife and our 4 little ones. Disney included for them.... boating related stores for me!

Since you're going to Disney, you won't be very far from Daytona and the "World's Most Famous Beach" where Surplus Unlimited is located on US Hwy 92, International Speedway Boulevard.
It's another store where surplus from a number of boat manufacturers unload their surplus inventory.

There is a surprising amount of late model items due to tons of storm damaged boats in all of the surplus yards, good chance you will get lucky and find some real keepers!

About a mile west of the previously mentioned Sailoriman on the north side of State Rd. 84 is McDonald's Hardware. They have stuff you can't get anywhere else. It's the best source for fasteners and plumbing fittings (fuel and water) I have ever seen. Check it out. :cool:
