    Gidday Yihang,

    You won't often get supplies at a normal hardware shop, well not at reasonable prices anyway.

    I always order from Boatcraft Pacific, and they send me stuff far cheaper than it would cost for me to get there by car, and the distance between Canberra and Melbourne is fairly great!

    Check out the closest agent to you, or order direct from HQ.

    Cheers,

    P

    You could also try Whitworths, they have a good mail order section and have all the boaties products.
