Default Source for quality 3/8" stainless 1x19 wire ?

But seriously though....
How hard is it to pull out the yellow pages? I would first be calling
around before i ask other people to basically find out names of businesses
and prices for me. thats simple laziness. Its a different matter if
dealing with something that is quite specialised, but for simple things like
wire rope, you could find out more in 15 minutes of your own time on the
phone than you could by asking other people. Further to this, this is
actually a *cruising* NG, with people not only all over the country, but all
over the world. So be considerate and reasonable; call harbour freight for
a start, even west marine's prices are apparently not too bad... then break
out your local yellow pages and comparison shop. This is a *news* group,
not a walmart.

Best regards,
Shaun

This NG has become basically useless.

suggestions.
