[Rhodes22-list] Back from the rat race , depth gauge, and April

[Ronald Lipton]

Elle,

  That looks like the depth gauge that I had on my old Catalina 22.
It was a low end gauge, but functional. I can't remember the manufacturer,
and I was trying to find old paperwork but couldn't.  It might have been
a Uniden.
