Aside from my usual on-line or local outfits for getting parts, Flea markets are a terrific place to find unusual and hard to find small parts and there is none better than the B&A Flea Market, located on US 1 at SE Indian St. in Stuart, FL
Here I will find deck roping, stainless steel shackles, shrink tubing, etc., for a fraction of the cost that established Marine supply stores will sell it to you for.

I recently picked up a set of roof top kayak racks for a client’s new Audi and these turned out to fit perfectly, at a great price. Seek and you shall find.
I always buy my shrink tubing (3M) here because I can get them in 4′ lengths in multi-colors at a fraction of the cost.

Then there is always the unexpected–– a set of CRESSI free dive fins, in my size.
