It's tough. I built my boat and had a tough time finding product. What specifically are you looking for? Auburn Sports and Marine has a few things, anchor mounts, anchor nests, oars and locks. Dougs Inboard Boats in Woodinville has a similar selection. I met Don Hill at one of the Outdoor Sports shows in Puyallup a couple years ago and he has been very helpful in getting custom cut Cataract Oars, oar rites, etc. His URL is http://www.dhdriftboats.com/ Good Luck!

Try down around Wallingford/Fremont at the marine centers, Cabela's, Auburn Sports Marine, Ted's in Lynwwood, and finally (like I have done for a lot of my stuff...) make it out of wood. For example, my corky holders are wood, my rod holders for storing rods out of the way are wood, my Fish On Rod holders are mounted to a wood cross piece, the rod rack in my pick up is wood...and I have an aluminum drift boat.

It may be a little bit of a drive , but trust me the all time best tackle and drift boat supply store in the world is Fisherman's Outdoor Marine & Supply store in Oregon City,Oregon.Take the 205 south around Portland and take exit 10 and it's right there on the right in a miny mall.You won't be dis-appointed!!!lester

Gotta agree with Lester. For shear variety, Fisherman's Marine Supply in Portland is very hard to beat. They actually have another store besides the one Lester mentions and it is just as, if not more, easy to get to than the I-205 store. This one is just across the bridge on the Oregon side as you go down I-5. Travelling south, it will be on your left less than a mile after crossing the bridge.
I make a trip down there every November to stock up on supplies(fishing and boat) for the year. It's well worth the drive and all tax free! What I save on tax pays for the gas.
