[Rhodes22-list] Need to know the level of interest in the Doyle UPS

[Mary Lou Troy]

OK folks, I think we're approaching fish or cut bait time.

Jay has talked to Stan and is waiting for a call back from Doyle Offshore 
about a discount on a group order on their UPS sail. We'll also be talking 
to Doyle City Island at the AC boat show this weekend. Jay has talked to 
Stan about the hardware mounting and we hope to have that sorted out in the 
next week or so.  Recent quotes for this sail in the past year have ranged 
from $900 to $1093 including the Harken mini-furler from different Doyle 
lofts.  We're looking at using the dimensions used successfully for Tom 
Deliberto's sail: .9 oz cloth, 240 sq. ft. and hoping to get some sort of a 
discount.

So who is interested? It's not a commitment yet but we need a likely 
head(sail)count to use in talking to the lofts. You can email me privately 
or answer on the list.

Info on the UPS sail is available on the Rhodes Owners site at 
http://www.rhodes22.org/upssail/index.html
and the Doyle sites http://www.doylesails.com/sails-ups.htm  and 
http://www.doylecaribbean.com/ups.htm (nice diagram of the sail).
