About
Bosun's Locker provides boat brokerage, chandlery and an online sailing store from its Gold Coast location, serving buyers and sellers of new and used vessels.
Service area: Gold Coast, Queensland
Bosun's Locker operates from the Southport Yacht Club Marina on the Gold Coast. The business supplies a full range of boating products and services, catering to both first‑time buyers and experienced owners. Its team offers professional advice on purchasing and selling boats, drawing on decades of experience in the local marine market.
The brokerage wing assists clients looking to buy or sell new and used vessels, including sailboats, powerboats and commercial craft. Prospective sellers can rely on the staff to manage listings, coordinate viewings and guide negotiations, while buyers receive support in selecting suitable boats and arranging inspections. The service is positioned as a full‑service brokerage, handling the transaction from initial enquiry through to handover.
Bosun's Locker runs a chandlery that stocks a wide variety of marine hardware, safety equipment, ropes, canvas, boat covers, biminis and related accessories. Products are available for purchase in‑store and through an online sailing store, allowing customers across Australia to order directly. The range includes anchoring and mooring gear, engine and steering components, electrical and navigation items, as well as clothing and gift items.

Treat a southerly buster as a rapid-onset windshift with a strong increase in wind and sea state; prepare the boat and crew by reducing sail area early, securing loose gear, briefing crew on roles, and identifying shelter or an upwind recovery plan. Respond quickly but deliberately — keep boat controllable, avoid last-minute heavy-handed moves, and prioritise mainsail and crew safety over speed.
