I have used Queensboro Shirts for custom embroidery many times. They do a free 
logo set up, supposedly for only the first one but have never charged me for 
changes or new logos. Their products are great quality - embroidery outstanding 
- and best of all have a 4 item minimum - and can be 4 different garments / 
hats etc.   They also have a service that allows clubs etc to set up a "store" 
- allowing members to order items - and allow the club to get a cut - might be 
worth a look to set something up on the c

I just got a '4imprint' catalog at work. I've probably tossed a couple dozen of 
these in the recycle but this time I thought ... C caps?  

Good looking 2-tone ('wave' of colour on the bill) cap including embroidery 
with no tape setup charge is:

$8.75 ea for 36
$7.95 ea for 72
$6.95 ea for 144
$6.50 ea for 288
$5.76 ea for 576

Cheaper single-colour option is on sale until 15 May:

$7.25 ea for 48
$6.75 ea for 72
$5.50 ea for 144
$4.95 ea for 288
$4.50 ea for 676

Set-up tape charge of $35 for 72 pieces or less

All prices in $CAD

They will send you free samples

www.4imprint.ca 

Not sure how those prices compare with others. 

Looks like they might be based in Windsor (it’s just listed as a PO Box number 
... so it’s probably actually serviced out of Detroit).

I’ve sail before and I’m still thinking that bulk shipment to ‘regional’ reps 
would be the cheapest for final distribution and that rep could hit the local 
C Rendezvous.

Next year you approach places like HMP to take some items to the Toronto Boat 
show on the groups behalf or let a rep use a corner of their booth and perhaps 
Shoreline as well (since both still have some C parts stock) ? Other areas 
could approach their local suppliers that cater to the sailboat crowd to do 
same.

I would highly suspect that water bottles and coffee mugs would be a good 
seller too.

Subject: Stus-List Ball Caps 

Seveeral months ago we stopped selling the Ball Caps and for several good
reasons.

Gladys, the embroidery queen, wore out her $2000 sewing machine and could
not justify replacing it.  I learned quite a few new words when she was
sewing the caps.

We were purchasing decent hats wholesale and the company dropped the line
and introduced a new line at almost twice the cost.

The Post Office increased the cost of shipping.  Shipping to the USA went
from $5.00 to almost $8.00.  To ship in Canada to the west coast it was
over $14.00.  Even having a commercial account with Canada Post, the costs
were outrageous.  Fedex, UPS and others out completely out of the picture.

Every time the costs went up, I tried to absorb it but eventually it was
costing us and Gladys got nothing for her frustrations.

I'll pursue the matter this summer and see if we can get a commercial
company to make the hats for us at a reasonable cost and see if there is a
shipping method that is affordable.

Now if you have someone who can handle a needle and thread, Gladys is
still doing the embroidered C patches on another machine.  Get yourself
a hat and have someone sew the patch on for you.

I'll certainly look into the possibility of getting the hats back online.

Re: Stus-List Ball Caps

I don't see patches on the website?

Something perhaps to look into is the possibility that a bulk order of 
chandlery items be shipped out to a volunteer (or 2)  in various areas to


1) broker for the group
2) bring along to the area's CC rendezvous?

I must admit in the couple years I've had the boat I haven't made it to the 
PNW rendezvous yet, but I'd be willing to help out with something like that.


However, somebody that does a fair bit of travelling for work or otherwise 
would probably be a good broker.
