Just a little note for you.
I was shopping for a bilge pump for Lady Jo last week. For various reasons I finally settled on this pump here: Jabsco 12v Water Puppy - 18660-0121
A quick internet search shows this pump from just over 100 bucks to over 180 bucks! Yikes that is quite a spread! Dare I purchase this pump for 102 bucks from an online site I'm not familiar with? West MArine carries it, has it in stock at my local store, however asks 179 bucks for it!!! SAME PUMP! SAME MODEL NUMBER!
Well, Alan Hodge happend to come buy over the holidays so I figure, lets go to West Marine! I printed the add off the internet. The full page including the website and date. We meandered off to West Marine where they were happy to match the internet price!! My friends, this was a $77.00 savings!
West Marine will match internet prices! ALWAYS double check the price online! It can save you some CASH!
On a side note, Alan was kind enough to buy me lunch and we had a great time hanging out! He even climbed aboard Lady Jo and checked out the mess I've made of her! LOL!

Discounts
I seem to be spending alot of time chasing hardware as I put things back together. If you are retired military, or a veteran, Home Depot and Lowes will give you a 10% discount just for asking. A dollar off a quart of teak oil is not a great deal, but a hundred off a refrigerator is a big deal.
I too would be interested in buy a set of keel brackets when you are ready to take orders.
