[Rhodes22-list] New mast needed in New England (with photos)...

[Todd Tavares]

There is a 1980s vintage for sale on Facebook for about $300 in
Fredericksburg Virginia.

I'd sell you a mast but I'm down to only one spare now. You could
contactStan at General Boats to see if he has any old ones in the yard, but
good luck getting a return call of email.

(But for some reason, I'd you bad mouth him on the list, you usually get a
quick come back...LOL...go figure)

The boat in Virginia on a trailer on Facebook...if it doesn't get stripped
off the email.
