Whitworths have been my store of choice for boat fittings ...... my problem is that I have the best part of an hour to get to the nearest store in Sydney - their online store is pretty reasonable .

Give a man a fish & he will eat for a day !
Teach him how to fish
& he will sit in a boat - & drink beer all day!

Another plus for Whitworths. Great shop at Gabba. Keep using them or theyll be gone.
A plus for whitworths from me also..
I fitted my boat out from them a couple of years ago and most stuff I ordered over the phone and had delivered..
A couple of the guys in the Cairns store were patient and knowledgeable and easy to deal with....
I gave up on BCF ..they wouldnt even take credit card over the phone or put on my courier from the local store 45 minutes away...
actually they went insolvent and were bought out
https://publishednotices.asic.gov.au...7-3ebe8a7e8a34
The stock and name were bought out and trading online only
staff wernt being paid super suppliers not being paid wages not always going in
bcf helped kill them off then most bcf stores culled their range to nothing
same as their fishing gear killed off a bunch of independents and now half the store is their own crap
you make it sound like it was a choice to go online only
whitworths and ch marine for me as nearest store is 6 hours away
local telwater dealer has some stuff and a road tech marine just opened in Wagga Wagga
Its few and far for me in between these shops, before bcf came a long my options for bias stores were warrick farm or penrith now bcf is here i have one just in wethrill park but there stock is small as u mentioned bcf has nothing on whithworths but there stores are hard to get to either jammed all the way with traffic or a mission drive to taren point, i would pick whitworths over any boat supplie shop just if it was closer
The guys who worked the old bias store were great blokes i cant really say anything about there wages but there were 4 blokes always working the shop
