Marine Supply Stores in Anacortes & La Conner
Parts chosen by the people who fit them
Two stores, inside two working yards

Open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm
ESI North in Anacortes is the main store: EPOCH lithium for boats and RVs, solar, Sea Hawk and Interlux Brightside paints and epoxies, electrical parts and supplies, and a fishing tackle and bait shop. ESI South in La Conner carries Delo, Hy-Nautic and Yamalube lubricants. Both stock Hempel Silic One and Hempaspeed.
Both stores sit inside working boatyards, which is the point: the counter is fifty feet from the technicians using the same parts. If it is not on the shelf we will tell you what does work instead.
What we stock
- EPOCH LiFePO4 lithium batteries — we are the largest EPOCH dealer in Washington, and we hold inventory
- Victron Energy inverters, chargers and monitoring — we are a full-service Victron dealer
- Hempel Silic One and Hempaspeed at both locations
- Sea Hawk and Interlux Brightside topside paints and epoxies
- Marine lubricants — Delo, Hy-Nautic and Yamalube at ESI South
- Electrical parts and supplies, solar equipment
- Fishing tackle and bait at ESI North
Fitted as well as sold
Anything we sell, we can fit. Marine electrical and lithium installation is done to a written standard by technicians certified through our own training program — so a battery bought over the counter does not have to become your problem to wire. Call (360) 610-7577.
At the counter
What people come in for
Both stores sit inside working boatyards, so the answer is usually on the shelf or fifty feet away.
- The part, today. Stocked at both yards, Monday to Friday.
- The right oil for the engine. Tell us the engine and we will tell you the oil, and change it while the boat is here.
- Help fitting it. Anything we sell, we fit.
How we choose
How we choose what we stock
Everything on these shelves is here because we ran it on boats first. We test regularly — and marine manufacturers select us to test for them.
The number off the test, not the line off the bottle
When we tell you a gear lube still protects a lower unit with fifteen percent water in it, that is AMSOIL’s published result under ASTM D3233 and D892 — a number off a test, not a line off the bottle. When we put an EPOCH bank in a boat, we have read that model’s cranking rating and what its warranty actually covers.
Tested in these waters
Regularly, on working boats in the Salish Sea — the same currents, the same fouling pressure and the same season our customers run in. A data sheet tells you what a product does in a laboratory. A season on a hull tells you what it does here.
Field-tested for the manufacturers
We test regularly, and marine manufacturers select us to do it for them. It is a relationship earned by reporting honestly — including when the answer is not the one they were hoping for. What reaches our shelf has been run first.
The people who choose what we sell are the people who fit it, in the same building. That is the advantage of a chandlery inside a working yard: the counter and the bench are the same trade, and nothing reaches the shelf that our own technicians would not put on a customer’s boat.
AMSOIL dealer
Why we stock AMSOIL
Four-stroke gasoline
AMSOIL Marine Engine Oil in 10W-30, 10W-40 and 25W-40 synthetic blend: NMMA certified to the FC-W standard for four-stroke outboards, inboards, sterndrives and personal watercraft.
Diesel
AMSOIL 15W-40 Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Oil, listed by AMSOIL for Yanmar, Cat, Cummins, MAN, MTU and Volvo.
Lower units and gear oil
AMSOIL 75W-90 Synthetic Marine Gear Lube, which AMSOIL publish as still protecting with up to 15% water contamination.
Two-stroke at 100:1
AMSOIL 100:1 Pre-Mix Synthetic Two-Stroke Outboard Oil: half the oil per gallon of fuel, and it burns clean.
It keeps your factory warranty intact
AMSOIL marine oils are WARRANTY SECURE — running them does not put the engine manufacturer’s warranty at risk. That matters at a yard that warrants its own work.
Ask us which one your engine takes
Oil selection is specification, not preference. The 15W-40 diesel, for one, is not catalyst compatible and does not belong in an engine with DPF or SCR aftertreatment. Tell us the engine and we will tell you the oil — and change it for you while the boat is here.
Free for every customer
A complimentary 18-point inspection
An expert technician tests the boat’s systems and writes up every point as Excellent, Good, Monitor, Attention or Critical — a written report telling you what is sound, what to keep an eye on, and what has to be dealt with before it goes back in the water. Free with every job.
