SailNet is pleased to announce the launch of a full-service, business-to-business website serving our wholesale customer base. "This was a logical next step in becoming the sailing industry’s one-stop shop," SailNet cofounder Sam Boyle said. "Our knowledge and wide range of sailboat products and services—being a single distributor of hardware and custom-made goods—make us unique among our competitors and make it easier for our wholesalers to do business with us. Now, our clients can go online and check prices and inventory, or place an order, 24 hours a day, seven days a week."

To set up a wholesale account simply click on the link below. Once verified, your account will become active, and you can shop or order from the SailNet Store anytime of the day or night. Or, if you already have a wholesale account with SailNet, you can request a PIN number, which will allow you to sign in and begin placing your wholesale orders. To start, click on the link below:

Value-added features of the site include:

• Dealer and Broker Commissioning Packages—We save dealers and brokers time by putting together commissioning packages to suit customers demands, be it blue-water sailing or family daysailing.
  
  
  
• Yards and Riggers Sourcing—We ship masts and rigging throughout the world, and our site can save riggers and parts personnel valuable time in sourcing sailboat hardware.
  
  
  
• Virtual Store—View our 40,000 available products covering every sailing category.

"What this means to the dealer is less time putting together commissioning packages and more time selling boats," Randy Draftz, SailNet’s Vice President of E-Commerce, said. "To the rigger or service yard it eliminates communication problems between spar builders, riggers, and sailmakers, and it matches the right hardware to the job. Our ship store customers will be able to browse through our 40,000 available products and place orders online at their convenience with immediate feedback as to price and availability."

This addition is the latest feather in SailNet's cap. The company purchased JSI—the largest sailboat gear-only wholesale distributor in the country—in January and rival Boatscape.com earlier this month. These service, combined with custom canvas, cushions, spars and rigging, AirForce Sails brand, and BoatSearch, make SailNet the one-stop place for sailors to click.

Whether you're buying a boat, selling a boat, refitting a boat, or dreaming about all of the above, SailNet is the source.
