Thanks for visiting our website. We opened in July 2006, as a new venture. As the only full range chandlery in East Cowes, we offer yacht owners and crews a wide range of honestly priced and reliable goods backed by helpful and knowledgeable staff.

Gordon Macdonald, the new proprietor, lives aboard his boat for the summer, just a few yards from the shop. He will happily share his expertise, stories knowledge of all things nautical, gained in thirty years at sea.

We are open 7 days a week for fifty weeks of the year- we do take two weeks off at Christmas time! During the summer we open extra hours for special occasions or events. If you want newspapers for the morning, please let us know the day before and they will be ready for you when we open. In the summer we keep bacon, eggs etc to provide a "fry up" to complete your breakfast experience. We also have freshly delivered sandwiches, sausage rolls, baguettes, baps, pasties and pies to save you cooking!

Whilst we have thousands of items in stock, if we don't have what you want, we can get it for you within a few days.

Now you have tried our website, please come and visit us, we would be delighted to see you. If you have any comments or suggestions, please E-mail gordon@rowlockschandlery.co.uk Thank you!

Gordon and the team.
