[Rhodes22-list] Re design of Rhodes Interior andeliminationofcompressi...

[Lowe, Rob]

Rummy,
Interesting that he's left the site up.  Wonder if he'd mind
transferring all the content over to another owner so we could add to
it? - rob

Rob,
I believe Tom Evans has sold his boat and moved on. There are a few of
us  
old timers still on the list. Michael, myself, Ed, Slim and a few others
I'm 
 sure I have forgotten were around then. Although he isn't presently  
participating, I'm positive that Ed monitors the list. 
 
Rummy

Rick,
Here's the link to the home  page

No, I don't know who (if  anyone, maintains it).  Looks like Tom and
Victoria Evans own it, but  it says it hasn't been updated since 2005
and
I expect it's been longer  than that.  Most of the contributors to this
web site aren't even on  this list anymore (except maybe Michael). - rob

Rob,

Those are a couple of nice  sites.  Do you know how the Blew Skies one
is
kept alive?  It  doesn't seem to have been updated for years.
