Stuffing Box Hose Source

I just got a stuffing box hose from Southern Crown Boatworks for $7.00 and flax packing for $.70 a foot. The hose is the same stuff that Spartan sells for $12(5-ply EPDM Rubber unreinforced), and the flax is less than half what West charges (although I plan to use Dripless Packing when I replace the hose).

Southern Crown is in Atlanta and specializes in antique (wooden) boat hardware. Contact Allen Brady at 770-454-8798.
