Post-Brexit Update: From now on all orders for delivery outside of UK and Northern Ireland are shipped with zero VAT. Prices on our website are displayed including 20% VAT but this is removed when a different country is set as the delivery address on checkout. MD Andy Burgess started as the "Saturday Boy" over 20 years ago.
On leaving University with an honours degree in mathematics he took pity on Rob and went full time. Headhunted by Sowester/Simpson Lawrence, the largest marine equipment distributor of its day, he was on the road (60,000 + miles per year!) for 6 years as Northern area sales manager. This, coupled with his behind the counter years working alongside Rob since rejoining Storrar Marine, has given him an unrivalled knowledge of the retail trade.

This shop was listed as a stockist for a product that I was looking for (Wet & Forget). I have no association with boating but I imagine this place is a treasure trove for those who are! My reason for writing this review was to mention the friendly helpful service I received. The kind where you feel like you've shopped there for years.

Just a massive thank you to Andy and all at Storrar .
MarineThey have been looking after my 27 foot hunter legend for 5 years. This winter we undertook a lot of extra work. Yesterday sailed her up the North East coast (post lockdown) with some good gusts and everything worked perfectly.
All the work has been undertaken to the highest standards
All staff are friendly, knowledgable and very helpful.
The prices for work I find very clear and very reasonable.
Thank you Storrar

Best advice on the planet!
It is both chastening and heartwarming to learn everything at the University of Google, as I thought, and then to call in to Storrar's with a shopping wish list only for Andy or Rob to painstakingly and politely demolish it and to sell you something better for less!
Advice also available by email, I believe, for those not privileged to live in the North East.
