Thanks Cecilia,

For starters I will begin sending copies of the emails relating to 
parts, that I had been forwarding to Charles, to you also so you can get 
a feel of this part of the business.  Your interests has me excited 
since I am beginning to see this as a potential tail wagging the dog 
possibility plus an inroad on something that would please both of us; 
taking some of the wind out of Chris Cowie's Piracy.

You will be amazed. as I, when you begin seeing the scope of parts that 
buyers of Rhodes from private sellers are beginning to turn to us for.  
Not only Rhodes owners but owners of other make boats.  For instance it 
turns out that Rhodes uses the same color and size rub rail insert that 
comes on their Boston Whalers and we are the only source so they come 
back to us periodically for replacements.  A small item but there are 
turning out to be many: The small vertical IMF main sail batten.  CB 
gasket kits.  It is almost endless.  Plus we keep coming up with better 
parts to use then their current ones like Charles improved outhaul car 
that lasts forever, the new traveler invention and maybe even a kit I am 
thinking of that makes furling in the main sail easier in heavy airs.  I 
would like to set up a parts table at the show to begin learning more 
about the potential of this division.  If there was a $1,200 Pop Top 
enclosure at our table, used, for $695, I bet it would sell in minutes.  
Today I have already forwarded an owner who wants a water line stripe 
and mast hoist assembly to Charles; plus we have an upgrade to that 
product that I have been too sidetracked to ever get to, although it 
saves time and effort in raising and lowering the mast at very little 
additional cost.

gotta watch the debates.  The business and politics are welcome 
distractions in this Rose haunted empty house that otherwise is so 
painful to live in.  The kids want me to live with them but business is 
my life saver.  Imagine me in a rocker and staring at the world going by 
without me.
