INTRODUCTION TO MARINE WEB SITES.
|
|
|
The below links to the marine
industry are offered for your consideration and research. To view
click on the website URL and wait for the various categories to come
up. These sites are also an excellent guide
to fuel the learning curve when outfitting a new or currently
owned yacht. Many links offer a massive amount of good educational
information, this is always helpful in choosing the right equipment
for your yacht. Some sites offer pricing as well, which is helpful
in the ongoing budget consideration. I am not endorsing any of the
products seen herein, most of them speak for themselves, I have put
vendor comments from the site as a guide,
but if you have any questions, I will be more than happy to
work with you to find the best vendor that can
handle your needs. Although this presentation is directed at
the |
|
|
|
|
|
Web sites come and go and we can’t
check them often enough to be sure the URL’s are still operational,
so let me know if I have missed one that is no longer active. Also,
you will find that many URL’s will be repeated in various
categories. This is due to the fact that most companies offer
several different types of products. This should make it easier to
find the item you are looking for.
I cannot do this with all sites, but have tried to get the
major items into various categories.

I Hope this is helpful to you, and if
you have any questions, please contact me on my cell at (949) 230

from the contact link on this site, or at

or www.yachtdreams.net . |

I hope the following sites are helpful in the constant quest for
the perfect yacht.

ACCESSORY CATALOGUES
The following categories are well and little known suppliers
that offer a variety of marine products, most have on line
ordering, or check with your broker for details on additional
discounts when buying through a broker – One particular site
“The mother of all web sites” is exceptionally interesting and
probably the most detailed way to locate almost anything to do
with the Marine equipment and life style. One other way to
gather information on various products, which include testing
information, is to log on to
www.practical-sailor.com where you can search for back
issues of various equipment that is mostly geared for the sail
group, but there are
many items that are easily adaptable to power yachts.

PRODUCTS
Products for car of your yacht, Many more will be found n the catalogue
sales section above.
* Tip: Never use harsh acid
cleaners or stiff bristle brushes on teak decks if you want them to have
along life. Mild detergent and a cotton swab will remove dirt and keep
the decks from
deteriorating. Salt water
applied during the evening hours will help wood greatly and give it a
silver grey finish.
