[Rhodes22-list] Motor Lift Repair - what material?

[Michael D. Weisner]

Rob,

Patrick clearly needs to learn to prioritize properly.  Sailboats are ALWAYS 
more important than a roof over one's head or gifts for the kiddies.  That's 
why it's always been "OUR house" and "MY boat", even though the title 
specifies otherwise!
