Re: Stus-List Defender's Warehouse Sale
I didn't make it there in-person this year, but my order just arrived... Sometimes it's good to be a few miles down the road from Defender! Do you think I should take the shiny new PLM for kayaking in the Keys next week?

Stus-List Defender's Warehouse Sale
Are any listers planning to go to Defender's warehouse sale this weekend? Is it worth going? I'll be in New Haven's area this weekend and trying to decide if I should drop by...

Aaron, All the best deals will be sold out to those who are probably already standing in line, but I would be like a kid in a candy shop!

Re: Stus-List Defender's Warehouse Sale
Aaron, The sale is 10% off everything in the Defender catalogue and that is the same whether you order online or buy at the warehouse and take it with you. The warehouse is less than 60 minutes from New Haven and IMO it is worth making the trip if you can. Eliminating the $ for shipping, especially important for heavier or bulky items, can make it worthwhile though you will pay CT sales tax of 6.35%. Just the savings on bottom paint can make the drive worthwhile. Any / everything else is then gravy. The warehouse is a zoo especially on Thursday and Saturday mornings of the sale. Anything not in stock has to be shipped, though they usually have most things. One year I placed an order for a halyard with the rigging shop when I arrived and it was ready by the time I was ready to check out. The flea sale / seconds / clearance section and the manufacturers' reps section can also yield great finds / information.

Re: Stus-List Defender's Warehouse Sale
Yea it's crazy! Like a really condensed Boat Show. Very Very Busy, great deals, and they'll even ship for you to avoid the tax...uh I mean for the convenience of not having to haul the stuff back home yourself... It's definitely worth the trip in my opinion.

Lots of participation by manufacturers. Prices are great, and they also have a room of discontinued and shop worn stuff that holds some treasures. You'll see things such as brand new 22 pound Delta anchors for $50 because the finish is no longer bright. If you have a shopping list, the savings really add up. Many of the best bargains are orphans, or old stock, and are not listed on the website. There will also be deep discounts on stuff such as bottom paint.

Re: Stus-List Defender's Warehouse Sale
I've been there a few times. Great store. Great people and great deals. The sale is a great way to see everything and touch it and try it on. They usually have bins of clearance stuff and sale items not listed online. Just remember if you order online you save paying the tax which is usually five times the shipping cost. You can always look at everything at the store and unless you're buying a boat, a trailer, or an outboard, wait till you get home to place your order.
