Bruce,
I’d go 100% with Edson even if more expensive. They are a quality and customer oriented company. We’re fortunate to be close to Edson. My wife needed help stitching on a replacement wheel cover. They offered to have me bring the wheel to them and then demonstrated how to do it. When I rebuilt my 37+’s steering, they had the details on my system including the designer of the boat. I overheard, “Hey Rob, we have one of your boats”. When I ordered a few small parts on line which cost less than the shipping, someone called me to say the order was no charge. Little things matter. For example, the stainless steel steering cables are cut to length with a torch (similar to cutting line with a hot knife) so the ends don’t unwind. There are very few businesses like Edson around anymore.

Directly from Edson (expensive) or is there a less expensive, but still good quality alternative (say from McMaster Carr, Grainger, etc.)?
