Position: Allan's Hardware (OpenStreetMap). Other hardware mapped in OSM: Uyok Merchandising and Aira's Glass Hardware (about 11.9978N 120.2048E), Hi-Top and Malabon (11.9995N 120.2074E), Danver Hardware (12.0007N 120.2009E), and a car-repair shop at 11.9995N 120.2066E. Brigadoon (2013): petrol, diesel and hardware all in town; hire a tricycle. 2-stroke oil: Good News (2021) found Havoline 2-cycle oil only at Hotel 4:13 (Four Thirteen Suites) on the National Highway opposite Coron Drugstore; ask at reception. Arnak (2013): outboard oil and fuel at the Petron station and over the road on the way into town. Outboard repair: Sloepmouche (2017) found Plong at the small marina in Dicanituan Bay, one of the rare outboard mechanics in the Philippines. Yacht service: Soggy Paws (2018) reported The Boat Shed in Busuanga Bay (Damien Blyth, ex-aircraft engineer and diesel mechanic): machine shop, MIG/TIG welding, diesel, refrigeration, parts flown in from Manila, provisioning of imported foods and ice; Andy Alford at Sunset Moorings (RCC 2025) is the best current contact for who is working locally. Confirm all before relying on them. Major haul-out: none in the Calamianes; nearest yards are around Subic and Batangas/Puerto Galera.
