I usually buy most necessities at Academy in Gulfport, MS. Lately I have been doing some shopping online (Bass Pro Shops, West Marine, Boaters World). Academy just opened back up (after Hurricane Katrina) at the end of December, and their inventory is still not back to normal. From what I have seen online, I like Academy just fine for their variety of inventory and prices. Just as an aside, I have a 150 Cool that I staked down on the trailer with some slack in the rope in my back yard (Pascagoula, MS) during the Hurricane. It rose with the tidal surge and sat right back down where it belonged. I only had to clean out the limbs and buff out a few scratches, and she is as good as new. Not many of my friends made out like that.
