The moral: despite WM's efforts to eradicate 'em there are lot of marine
retailers out there, so shop price! Even your local marine dock store is
likely to be cheaper than WM these days.

Or, the opposite: In my locale where there is also a WM, the big &
small competition within a large radius has used the WM pricing
standard as a winch to ratchet themselves up to the same levels, and
the prices are so identical it is easy to forget which store you drove
to, once inside with the item in hand. A far cry from 8 yrs ago when
we had a wide spread among them with WM at the top & all the others at
60% or much more below those levels. Sort of the inverse of the
WalMart syndrome.
