<P>On behalf of the Great Lakes Alberg Association thank you for your efforts,

this is wonderful news.

and Alberg owners so that your efforts are recognized.

You have done us all a great service, and may I wish you all the best.

<P>John:

<P>Greetings again. I finally spoke with Bill Boyle of Boyle Boatworks

and your preliminary hunch that they had the molds has proved to be correct.

They  have the Alberg 30, the Alberg 37, and the Whitby 45 molds.

Bill Boyle's email is <FONT COLOR="#3366FF">wboyle@aol.com</FONT> and fax

is 803.733.2984. Hope this helps and good luck.

<P>John:

<P>According to a local broker here Whitby molds made it to Ft. Myers Ship

and

<BR>Yacht Building where they turned out Brewer 42 and 44s. Ft Myers Ship

and

<BR>Yacht went broke but you might find some answers at 941.332.7800. Joe

was

<BR>who I was referred to, though he wasn't in at the time and again brokers

<BR>seem pretty knowledgable in these areas if you can look one up down

there.

<BR>Additionally the broker I talked to here seemed to think that calling

Cape

<BR>Dory might be helpful in tracking down the Alberg molds. Anyway keep

us

posted and good luck.

<P>John:

<P>We are not related to Boyle Boat Works. As to the fate of the Alberg

30 and

<BR>Alberg 37 molds, Whitby Boat Works of Ajax, Ontario, Canada was the

original

<BR>builder of the Alberg line. While my attempts in tracking down the

molds was

<BR>unsuccessful, you might have luck calling yacht brokers in the Ontario

area

<BR>who may know something of their whereabouts.. There are also a number

of

<BR>Alberg web sites who could perhaps refer you to another source, as

well as a

<BR>number of Alberg boat owners who have left their reviews in our BoatSource
