Re: WEST MARINE LONG ISLAND.
I was just by there yesterday, about a mile away at a trailer shop. Had I known about the store closin' up I sure would have stopped in. Never much cared for the W.M. ......seems like the entire staff at a home depot.....throw on a blue shirt or an orange smock and pretend like you know something..." uuuh, it should work, you can always return it".....no thanks. I did however score pretty good at the trailer shop, I first got beat over the head for a double roller assembly.....70.00$.....the good news was that I scored 2 new 15" galv. rims with 2 brand new "st" trailer tires, mounted, for 60.00 a piece. I couldn't pass that up. :)

Re: WEST MARINE LONG ISLAND.
phester, like it or not, with a west marine about a mile from my house, when in need there isnt always a choice.
tell you the truth, internet supply houses, after figuring in the shipping, arent much better in terms of price. and when you need it you need it. i believe you said you were in kings park... not that far. might be worth another drive out there. i think i also saw some trailer parts, but wasnt really looking for them so didnt really pay them much mind.

Re: WEST MARINE LONG ISLAND.
Just my two cents worth,
The Home Depot and Lowes and West Marine in Lewes/ Rehoboth, Del are not normal. They actually staff the stores with people who are willing to help, they are knowledgale and if they can't help, they will find someone that can. I actually enjoy visiting these stores in Delaware, because the HD and Lowes in my hometown are just like you said, they just can't be bothered to help.
