<DIV><FONT size=2>Ocean Outfitters has changed hands over the past year and a
half. You can occaissionaly find a good buy there, usually rigging and
hardware fittings or cabin accessories and older electronics. Not a bad way to
spend an hour or so. Easy to find. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I love Bacons for sails , sailbags , sailcovers etc. Most of
their fittings are not much cheaper than West Marine. Good selection of winches
from time to time. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>As for BAM , I've been twice and felt it was a grand waste of
time and won't go back again. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>If you want service , knowledgeble staff who are willing to
work with you on ordering parts etc, you CAN"T beat Fawcetts. Prices are not
that much above West Marine and you get service.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I agree with your assessment IF your talking
about last October. I generally go just to check it out anyway. If I'm really
looking for something in particular, I buy it new from a major chandlery or
the manufacturer anyway. Sometimes, BAM has some great gadgets for cheap $,
sometimes it is a waste of time. In any case, it's an excuse for a road trip
to Annapolis and if I go at the right time, I get to spend an hour or two in
Bacon also.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I just heard of another
consignment shop in Annapolis. "Ocean Outfitters" Does anyone have any
opinions on these guys as compared to Bacon? Is it worth my time to check them
out (my time is cheap if I'm in town anyway)?</FONT></DIV>
