[Public-list] Turnbuckle

[Brian and Elaine Timmins]

There is also Mystic Marine Consignment (AKA Mystic Boat Stuff) by the
bridge in downtown Mystic. (First road going North on the East side of the
bridge, on the left about 100 yards (if that)) (If you know Mystic, you know
the bridge.)
Regards,
Brian  ex#497
