Hey everyone!
I was posting a URL on another thread and thought that we should start a thread with just links to suppliers and resources for easy reference. I don't want this to be a good vs. bad thing just a compilation of places people go for boat "stuff" and info. List places that you have seen neat stuff that you wish you could buy or places where you have bought stuff from. It would nice to have a quick description to go along with the uRL to help people narrow down if that company has what they want.
For example:
http://www.fourwinns.com
Our Beloved Boat's Manufacturer's Home page
http://www.genmar.com
Four Winn's parent company
http://www.rochfordsupply.com
Supplier of marine textiles, carpets and associated accessories.
http://www.superbrightleds.com
Supplier of LED lighting
http://www.randpcarriages.com
Supplier of trailer parts and accessories including LED lights, winches and jacks.
http://www.innovativelight.com
Supplier of LED lighting
http://www.westmarine.com
Retailer of boating "stuff"

List away so we can have lots of research material at our hands.

BTW... I have a similar excel file that I compiled for work that is almot 100 pages long if printed and I refer to it everyday so this will probably become a useful tool if we put it together properly.
