[Rhodes22-list] Rhodes 22 1982

Wed, 29 Jan 2003 17:25:35 -0500

Lloyd,

Thanks, you saved me from going out to my boat for measurements. I just 
ordered a bunch of line from Sailnet. I checked some of the other suggested 
sources and they had the best price on the line I needed. They have halyards 
on sale, quite a nice mark down.

Wally
