[Rhodes22-list] Fwd: [chesapeakebay] Sailnet DOA

[brad haslett]

Rob, 

Thanks for the info, I guess that makes it official. 
Sometimes when I'm on the road using dialup I quickly
delete through threads to save time and missed that
one.  No moral issues to deal with now, thanks
Sailnet!   Anyone need a three-stage battery charger? 
I'll install the more expensive one and sell the other
one.

Brad
