At least out west here, Port Supply is the wholesale arm of West
Marine.
Do you have Port Supply retail stores in NC?


I don't know of any.... and I've been lead to believe that it is no
longer worth the effort to jump through all the hoops to get an
account.

How do their prices compare to West Marine? Same?

There may be different levels of discount available through Port
Supply.
The prices should always be at least a little cheaper than through
West Marine directly. Port Supply "wholesales" stuff to stores that
compete with West Marine retail shops, as well as to some independent
repair facilities and boatyards.
