I would agree that buying local is FAR better in the long run. Picture it, beautiful summer weekend and your Ed's Marine ETEC is acting up for one reason or another. Your local guy will likely tell you to take a number and see you in two weeks. When I bought mine in town, my marina dropped what they were doing if I needed them, and helped me as soon as I pulled into the yard, no BS. They treated me like gold because I bought from them, what is that worth???
