I second the Fisheries Supply recommendation. I like their customer service and as a long term customer get a good discount. Years ago I become acquainted with the owners, the Sutter family as Fisheries and my manufacturing company shared a CPA. Carl Sutter is an accomplished sailor and a supporter of sailing programs. Back in the early 90’s I was doing foredeck duties on a Santa Cruz 50. One of the crew worked at Fisheries. On the first race of a 3 day regatta one of the primary winches failed. (It’s an exciting moment to see the winch handle rotating backwards under load.) The Fisheries guy called the store and arranged for a new winch to be run over to Shilshole Bay Marina. We got it installed fast enough to only miss 1 of 3 buoy races that day.

Wholesale Marine out of Cincinnati has some good prices. I also printed Harken items at West Marine and Larson Marine in Waukegan IL and Larson was substantially cheaper across the board. Not what I was expecting but if you are on the western shore of Lake Michigan, Larson is worth a look.

Hey Don, Thanks for the reminder. I have a few hundred dollars of stuff in my Defender cart and I'll complete the purchase soon. I agree, the discount doesn't seem to be as deep. I had SS fittings selected that I can find cheaper on the interweb, so I will buy them that way. I think the discount average is 5% to 10% but the savings on big items was worth it. West Marine: I only buy there as a last resort. They don't stock as well as in the past. And the local store doesn't answer the phone. I once was doing a project and needed a certain color paint, and the Glenn Burnie store had a recording answer the phone. I drove the ten miles and found they were out what I needed. There were two cashiers doing nothing but cleaning the counter and joking with each other, no customers in sight, so I called the store phone number and sure enough I got the same message, "Due to an unexpected high volume of customers, our assosiates are too busy to answer the phone. Please try again later." I put it on speaker for the cashiers to hear and told them they could have saved me a trip but their service stunk and walked out. I've also found them closing and locking the store before their posted hours. Very poor customer service this winter.
