Detroit area LHS

[nitronewbie]

All you guys in the detroit area. I'm making a road trip to your side of the state this weekend to finish up on my NEXUS pass interveiw. Are there any LHS in the detroit area that is boat friendly? I'm hopeful that this NEXUS pass thing is the hot ticket to get into Ontario this summer. Thanks

I would second the stop at Larry's. Great place with a lot of good parts. They do have a boat section and carry some insane hardware, Octura and speedmaster parts, etc.

Joe's is still there but their inventory of RC related equipment is very slim compaired to the last few years. They still have the train stuff though.
