[Rhodes22-list] Spring Loaded Pin for Pop Top Slider

[The Rhodes 22 Email List]

Brooks,
Stan has looked that way for the past twenty years. It must be the joy of  
boat building that has kept him alive all these years. I suspect he will be  
around for at least another twenty.
He had an opportunity to sell General Boats several years ago, but what  
else would he do with his time?

Hi  All,

FWIW: 

I passed through Edenton this Spring and visited the  factory. As a newbie,
wanted to meet the legendary Stan and pick up a  couple of parts. 

Not encouraging. He's 89, very frail, hasn't sold any  boats, very
discouraged. 

Several guys working there. I'm just  wondering how long  it's all going to
go on.

I agree that he  could be doing a good business in parts. I don't see him
starting up a web  site.

I'm thinking of a 130 jib and wanted to wait till next year but  may order
real soon (as soon as I dare break the news to wife).

I'd  say anyone wanting a big ticket item should go for it sooner, rather
than  later.

If anyone has better knowledge, please speak up. Maybe I caught  him on a 
bad
day.
