[Rhodes22-list] Catastrophe or a disaster?

[elle]

Pete,

The folks at the marina who have these put in just
love them...They are pricey tho' & I don't know about
power stuff, but I thought I'd throw them in the pot.

I believe this is the company...I will do a bit more
looking & if this is not it, I'll send it along..

We can dream...
