Stan:  I know this question has been asked but what IS the plan? Inquiring minds want to know!  Every business has a 10 year plan.  

You have so many people here that would help your legacy live on providing “magic carpet” rides for decades to come!  The design still works!!  Let us carry this torch.  When the millenials all wake up (;-/) and realize they want a boat thats EASY to sail they will need new ones because they certainly wont work to fix an old one.

When the rest of the world went multihull you opened an organic food store and played around with a Catalina 25 (cool yes, but scary to your Loyal Rhodies). But there is still a lure for a monohull, that tiller in hand ...a fresh breeze, taught sails, and an exhilirating heel!  Monohulls arent finished yet. 
Alex has some very well spoken points that i agree with!  
I hope you hear us.  No one wants to harm your income or steal from your family.  But how do you plan to carry forward after you turn 120?
