Memorialize your trip to Nautical Wheelers with a Jimmy the bear ornament! Jimmy lives just outside of our store in New Bern, North Carolina. He is a hand painted bear meant to symbolize all things Nautical Wheelers and Jimmy Buffett. 

Jimmy is named and themed after the incredible legacy of Jimmy Buffett. For those who may not know, our shop name, Nautical Wheelers is actually a Buffett song! Given that our owners are Bill and Camilla Wheeler, and all things Nautical has always been at the core of the business, Nautical Wheelers seemed like the perfect name choice. 

Originally, Jimmy wasn't Jimmy at all, but rather a more overall tribute to Nautical Wheelers as a store. But with Jimmy Buffett's passing in 2023, we knew we had to honor the original creator of our namesake. Adorned with margaritas, fins, a cheeseburger, and a parrot (among other nods), we think the real Jimmy would even be a fan of Jimmy Bearffett who now lives in 3/4 time outside the New Bern store. 

We turned out beloved bear into an ornament so everyone can love Jimmy, no matter where the adventures of life take them.

Pictured here with his artist, Chris Provard. We are so grateful for and in awe of her talents and think you will be too! Both big Jimmy and his ornament counterpart were made right here in Eastern North Carolina, making him a super cool memorial of a trip to North Carolina!
