Marine Connection Liquidators, Fort Pierce
 
How is this place? How are their prices? I've heard about them and browse their website about every year. But I've never actually been there. Is it worth a trip to go load up and/or try to find parts like fuel tank, hardtop/half tower, bow rail, etc? I'm thinking mainly tank and hardtop as those are the two most costly parts I don't have yet and still will need.

Be Careful !!
Make sure you know exactly what you want. Check any merchandise thorourly. Lot of very old stock and used crap. There prices are not marked and it appears what they want on that day. They don't negotiate and their prices are 5 cents below catalogs and can be had on the intetnet more reasonably. I see the same stock on the same shelf for years.
It's fun to browse and remember, no warranty.
Just my .02.

Thanks, this answers my question re: prices. Sounds like not worth visiting unless I happen to be already passing nearby.

I remember shopping their little store, when it was downtown Ft. Pierce. Great prices and they would deal with you. They moved north and got the big place, the prices got higher, but would still deal. Then they moved to the bigger place, where they are now and things must be made of gold or something, hardly any prices on anything. You have to ask what stuff costs. That being said I still shop there. Dug through hundreds of cushions and finally found one for my leaning post. Lots of interesting items.
