Captain Jim's store is a toy shop for people who like boats. It is full to the brim with everything you would ever need to build an armada of vessels. I work restoring vessels to Captain Jim has been my savior many times and the best part is the prices. He is very reasonable and willing the cut deals. If you are not into boats but enjoy going to flea markets and antique shops I would also highly recommend. His place is just full of cool things. My only complaint is that there is too much stuff to see in one visit, so you head back every weekend.

I too had high hopes for Captain Jim’s but no such luck. I can down from Belfast mostly just to look for a set of interior cushions for my sailboat. They have so many sets of used cushions, I was sure to find what I need. Unfortunately, for some ridiculous reason, they are slow stores on top of very high shelving units and impossible to reach without a ladder. I was told by a mildly helpful employee that if I wanted to see any, they would get someone with a ladder to pull them down to examine. This makes it impossible to sort through them to find the right size and shape. After waiting almost 20 minutes for an employee to unenthusiastically get a set down (wasn’t the right fit) I realized I could be there for hours and hours. I spoke to Jim and he was uninterested in helping me. All in all, this was a total waste of my time. I won’t be back.
