[Public-List] New Alberg owner and member of the association

[Jonathan Bresler via Public-List]

Tim,

Very happy for you.  So glad to hear that Rob Alley found the right person
for Nevermore #219.
With some TLC and the guidance that other member's of the association can
provide, I am sure
that you will be able to make her a beauty once again.

Look forward to seeing you on the water!

Jonathan
