[Public-List] Replacement Cahin Plates

[Lawrence Morris]

Roger,

I am the proud owner of Hull #501, "Solstice" and operate a marine  
services company in the Baltimore area.  If you can provide me with  
your original chain plates to use as a pattern, I will fabricate new  
replacements from 1 1/4" x 1/4" stainless bar stock for $185.00 plus  
shipping

Sincerely,

Larry Morris
