T&T: PYacht

[Randy Umstead]

Hello & Good Morning:

FWIW...I think Paul is correct that Fawcett's is not known for online
shopping.  However, my wife and I were by their store in Annapolis two weeks
ago and their prices were okay and their service was great.  For example, I
purchased a Fortress FX-23 anchor.  Their price was +/- $310.  Since getting
home and checking on the internet, I found one store with a price of +/-
$290, plus shipping.  All other internet stores I found ranged from $338 to
$360.  We spent more than an hour just looking and their personal could not
have been more helpful...What a great store. 

I wish we had a Fawcett's in our area !!

Just my two cents worth......

Fawcett's isn't known for online shopping. That's the main reason the bought
PYacht...
