Jack,
Sorry - you are quite right about the website. When they are in Canada, I
think they sail out of Humber in Toronto (at least they have in the past.)
I would be interested if a group purchase was arranged.

Correct, Todd, he is Canadian. I have made no overtures to him at all as
yet, but don't quite follow your comment about going directly through him -
that web site IS a direct marketing effort.
From the site, a rough calculation for shipping alone, of a single unit to
Canada, was around US$195. It's amazing how cheaply one can ship via
Greyhound/Voyageur once stuff has landed in Canada and, I presume, the
Continental US.
The units I saw were extremely quiet and mounted aft on poles.
