Small Boat Fittings

Here you will find rowlocks, cleats, fair leads, drain plugs and rudder pintles and gudgeons. We hold these items in stock in Brisbane Australia for immediate delivery. These are made of polished gunmetal and they really do give a hint of class to the boat. You can either keep them polished or allow them to naturally form a lovely patina on their surface. Alternatively, most of the items can be chrome palted for a small aditional charge upon request.
