aye, and there''s the rub. I sail with the guy from the local chandlery, the people at the local west marine have always been nice, and as helpfull as can be imagined (as has the chandlery) and I use the resources of sailnet, and so feel indebted to them (not to mention their prices are top notch) so I find my buying has to go around a little to each.
