> Hi all,
In Genoa (Italy), I have at least two naval supplies shops naming
themselves "(ship) chandlers".
 One of them is this one http://www.yachtchandler.it/ (I mapped with the
openseamap tagging plus shop=ship_chandler)
The other one was established in 1858, has "ship chandler" on the sign, but
I haven't yet mapped it.
Another one I have mapped some years ago as shop=chandler (but no
'chandler' in the name iirc).

Regards,
Stefano
