I'm not sure specifically where that chain is cheapest.

but just north of the airport off state road 84 are all the marine (and airport) suppliers.

Boat Owners Warehouse
Sailorman (lots of used stuff/ closeouts)
West marine (largest store)

Also mcDonalds hardware (ace). caters to shops supplying air/sea ports

I would call around. sailorman would be my 1st call, then BOW.

The best deals for chain is here. You need to order a barrel or half a barrel.

I need half a barrel (200 ft) of BBB 3/8 and am in Fernandina Beach. Anyone want to split a barrel? It's a buck a foot cheaper that way.

Lester's IS the breakfast place everyone uses as a landmark. been there for years and years. 24hr breakfast.

right across the street from the ace hardware

what makes that area unique is the warehouses support both a huge marine industry and private and commercial airport. You can get everything from metric screws, aluminum stock, welding, and canvas work within a mile.
