Old Way vs. Your New Pro Shop Way

Same three problems. Two very different answers.

Old Way
$2K to $5K
Bulk-Order Gamble
  • Inventory from past orders still in your office
  • XS, S, XL sit in the bin for months
  • Pieces go missing. You give the rest away
Your Pro Shop
$0 UPFRONT
No Inventory Ever
  • Member orders one, we print one
  • Zero cash tied up. Zero boxes to store
  • Profit hits your dashboard, not a bin
Old Way
3 WEEKS
To Reorder Anything
  • 24, 36 or 48-piece minimums per color
  • Charged per color, per placement, per design
  • Sold out of sizes or colors members want
  • Can't say yes without $2K + 3 weeks
Your Pro Shop
~1 WEEK
Door to Door
  • No minimums. Order 1 or 100, same price
  • Unlimited colors, designs, placements
  • Members pick size and color at checkout
  • USA printed and shipped free to their door
Old Way
2 WASHES
Until It's Cardboard
  • Print cracks, shirt stiffens, color fades
  • Members stop wearing it
  • You and your dock crew reach for other brands
Your Pro Shop
50+ WASHES
Still Soft
  • Premium blanks: Bella+Canvas, Champion, Sport-Tek
  • Soft on day 1, soft after 50 washes
  • Coaches reach for the club hoodie, not the other brand

Commodore Reviews

Hear from commodores and dock managers running this today.

Quality, sizing, time. The three things every owner wants to know about, answered by the clubes already running their apparel through us.

MR
Mike R.
Commodore · 80 members
Q: DO MEMBER POLOS AND DOCK-CREW TEES HOLD UP TO SUN, SALT AND WEEKLY WASHES?

"Forty-foot sailboats, full season on the water, salt spray and sun every weekend. Sport-Tek moisture-wicking polos and Bella+Canvas tees held the club burgee through every wash and every regatta. Members keep reaching for the club polo at the dockside bar. New members keep asking for the link to buy them. Free club marketing every weekend on the water."

JT
Jenna T.
Dock Manager · 150 members
Q: WHAT IF A NEW MEMBER WANTS A SIZE WE DID NOT PRE-ORDER?

"Used to bulk-order 30 polos in mediums for the new-member welcome bag, end up with five XLs no one wanted. Now every new member gets the club shop link on day one. Polo, hat, hoodie ships to their door in a week. Welcome bag is replaced by the link. Clubhouse closet is finally empty."

RK
Ryan K.
Club President · 240 members
Q: I AM COMMODORE, DOCK MANAGER AND CHIEF FUNDRAISER. WHO BUILDS THE SHOP?

"Volunteer commodore, day job, one dockmaster, 80 members. No time to design tees and write product pages. Done-For-You plan ran the whole boat club apparel store: member polos, dock-crew tees, regatta hoodies, embroidered hats. I sent the club burgee once. Members thought we hired a marketing firm."

Commodore & Dock Manager Questions

The questions we get asked most

Can I put our boat club logo, burgee art and crew callouts on custom boat club apparel?+

Yes. Every tee, polo, hoodie, sweatshirt and embroidered hat supports your club burgee, club logo, founding year, fleet callouts, member-name personalization and regatta art on the front, back, sleeve or chest. Unlimited design elements on one side, no per-color fee. Custom boat club apparel, boat club polo shirts, boat club hats, boat club t shirts and crew merch on one club URL.

Do you carry sailing gear, foul-weather jackets, life vests or boating equipment?+

No sailing gear, foul-weather jackets, life vests, PFDs or marine equipment. Those are specialty marine items you source from a marine supply vendor. What we do is the branded club-apparel side: boat club polo shirts, boat club tees, boat club hoodies, dock-crew apparel, embroidered club hats and members-only merch. The branded layer members and crew wear at the dock, the clubhouse and around town.

Can I order club apparel with no minimum so a small boat club, sailing club or rowing club works?+

Yes. Boat club apparel with no minimums. Solo commodore? Order one polo, one embroidered hat. Small 15-member club? Order one set per member as they join. Adding a new member mid-season? Order one. No bulk gamble, no warehouse, no leftover boat club shirts in the clubhouse closet. Most orders print in 1 to 3 days and ship in 3 to 5. Boat club uniforms without the wholesale minimum.

Can I sell branded boat club merchandise (boat club t shirts, hats, hoodies) to members and guests?+

Yes. Build a Member Merch collection in your shop. Drop your shop link on the club website, the dockside bulletin, the new-member welcome packet. Members and guests check out themselves on their phones. Boat club merch, freedom boat club apparel-style polos, dock-crew tees, regatta hoodies, all ship to their door free in about a week. Members walking the marina in your club burgee. Free brand exposure every weekend on the water.

Do you have premium blanks for the member-merch side, not just cheap boat club shirts?+

Premium blanks only. Bella+Canvas, Sport-Tek, Champion, Next Level, Independent Trading Co., Cotton Heritage. Real athleisure and dockside polos, not the stiff cotton tee from the cheap boat club brand factory. Member merch you can charge real money for. Pull a few samples from your dashboard at base price first and feel the difference.

We already use Custom Ink or a local print shop for our boat club apparel. Why switch?+

Three reasons most boat clubs switch within a season. Shipping: theirs charges $8 to $10 per order, hidden. Ours is free, every order. Fees: theirs charges per color, per placement, per design. Ours is one flat base price, unlimited colors. Permanence: theirs is one-and-done ordering. Ours is a permanent boat club store that lives at your URL year-round, ready for the next regatta, the next member day, the next commodore change.

Do I pay anything when a member orders boat club merch? What about crew uniforms?+

Zero cost when a member orders. They pay the retail price you set. Your $8 to $16 profit lands directly in your dashboard (great for funding club events and dock improvements). The rest covers our base price for printing, packing, and free USA shipping. For dock crew uniforms (boat club polos, embroidered hats), build a Crew section and self-order at base price. Members fund the crew gear and add a profit line your club never had.
