Story I hear tell is WM tried to buy Mike's. (Or perhaps just that store? Don't know/recall the details.) It was after that WM opened that store just down the block from the Mike's on Jefferson. Some local sailors that know of this refuse to shop at WM because of that.
I'll head down to Mike's when I'm not in a hurry. But if I'm in the middle of a boat job or on my way to the boat, I'm not going to all that way out of my way to go down to Mike's.
