The Ship's Store and Rigging has served the serious yachtsman since 1975.
The Ship's Store and Rigging is where the pros shop. Every major racing boat and crew on the East Coast shops here. Pros know that when a boat needs speed and efficiency, the rigging has to be done by the professionals at The Ship's Store and Rigging. Whether you own a racing yacht or a family cruiser, let us be your choice for rigging and yachting supplies and services too.
Established in 1975, The Ship's Store and Rigging is owned and operated by John Deveau, a lifelong Aquidneck Island resident and boater. We are one of the largest independently owned marine chandleries on the East Coast. We're committed to providing what you need for your boat when you need it, at a competetive price, in a friendly, knowledgable and traditional chandlery atmosphere. Our experienced staff has a collective 170 years in the boating industry. We enjoy what we do and are happy to serve you.
