Sell parts where boaters
ask for help.
Boaters now start repair questions in an AI assistant instead of a search bar. theNasty puts your catalog inside Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor with fitment matching, live stock, and checkout in the conversation. You drop-ship the order, and we handle payment and support.
How drop-ship works
We load your catalog
Send a CSV, feed, or just your site. We map SKUs, fitment, and stock. Your prices stay yours, and we honor MAP.
Agents recommend your parts
When a boater asks Claude why their pressure dropped, the model searches your inventory and quotes fitment-matched parts in the chat.
We collect payment
The customer pays us in the conversation. We own the card transaction, the fraud risk, and the customer's first-line support.
You drop-ship blind
You get a purchase order by email with the ship-to address. Ship it in plain packaging and reply with tracking. We bill against your dealer pricing.
Why suppliers work with us
Right part, first time
Agents match on engine, drive, and year before quoting, so fewer wrong-part returns reach you.
A new channel, zero lift
No storefront to build and no ads to buy. Your existing dealer program and PO inbox are enough to start.
Your terms stand
You set dealer pricing and MAP. We never advertise below MAP, and your brand appears the way you approve it.
What we'll ask for
- A catalog export (CSV, spreadsheet, API, or EDI feed) with SKU, title, price, and weight. Fitment data if you have it.
- Stock levels we can refresh, whether by daily file, feed, or API.
- Your dealer/wholesale discount schedule and any MAP policy.
- Blind drop-ship: no invoices or supplier marketing in the box.
- Written permission to use your product photos and descriptions, limited to selling your products.
- A PO inbox and a typical ship time (e.g. same day before 3pm).
Don't have all of it? Apply anyway. Plenty of great suppliers run on a spreadsheet and a phone line, and we'll do the catalog mapping.
Questions suppliers ask
- What does it cost to list?
- Nothing. No listing fees, no monthly fees, no per-SKU charges. We make our margin between your dealer price and the retail price the customer pays.
- Who owns the customer?
- We're the merchant of record, so we take payment, handle support, and field returns. We never resell your data or pass your pricing to other suppliers.
- How do purchase orders reach us?
- Each paid order becomes one PO per supplier, emailed to the inbox you give us, with the SKUs, quantities, and ship-to address. Reply with carrier and tracking. EDI or API integrations can come later if you need them.
- How and when do you pay?
- On your standard dealer terms. We can prepay by card or ACH, or run net terms once you've approved us. Customers pay us up front, so there's no collections risk passed to you.
- Returns and warranty?
- Customers return to us first. We only send you warranty claims and defective-part returns, handled under your existing RMA process.
- Do you only sell marine parts?
- Marine is where we started: sterndrives, inboards, outboards, cooling, and drivetrain. Adjacent powersports and diesel suppliers are welcome to apply.
