Fodor's Expert Review Marlinespike Chandlery
Stonington
Specialty Store
Inspired by chandleries, a sort of general store often found in seaside towns, the shop was born out of the owner's hobby of fancy marlinespike (marine) rope work. The shop is filled with a variety of marine artifacts, antiques, and other interesting items like beach stone and seaglass necklaces, rope and fiber boat fenders, and ditty bags (a canvas bag with marlinespike handles).
