<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>Tony Fortnam (Valency #272) purchased
3/8" Aluminum plates from Washington Aluminum Co. In Baltimore (410) 242-1000
ext 301 ask for Kirk. The plates are made from 6061 grade aluminum and are cut
using a computerized water jet cutting process and therefore a very even cut. I
installed them, and found that I had to do some "final fit" like rounding edges
and corners. This was done easily with a 3" belt sander. The finished job
give the appearance that this was an original part of the boat instead of an
aftermarket repair. See attached photo.</FONT></DIV>
