West Marine dropping Blue Seas for Egis

[dlochner]

This morning West Marine sent out an email announcing they are dropping Blue Seas and will be stocking products from Egis.

Has anyone heard of Egis, I haven't? Are they just rebranding the same products that Blue Seas does?

I noticed this at my local WM and am curious about the brand as well. The Egis brand is sold at all of the major online chandleries, as well as my favorite online marine mobile electrical systems supplier. So, Ill give them a try when the time comes. I just never noticed before. I do like Blue Sea tho.

I wonder if Egis bought out blue sea?

Blue Sea is owned by Brunswick and is part of the Navico group under Brunswick. Egis appears to be an independent company.

Seems like it with some products at least… others are different.
