Chris of the spreader shims, and other parts deprived Rhodies: GB is pleased to announce the enlistment of a part time white knight as commodore of the Rhodes parts division.  He harbors two Rhodes and the gift of making Rhodes parts even better.

Chris, send <stan at generalboats.com><mailto:stan at generalboats.com> your parts department receiving address and a set of Rhodes IMF MAST spreader shims will be delivered at no cost, your being a true believer in the Certificate of Support community.  If your shim issue has been resolved keep these, should this rare disease strikes again.

For those waiting for parts, they are now being created by skilled hands that make delays worthwhile.  For those who would like to know the name of GB's parts artist, it is Sir Charles Gabriel who some may have met at Annapolis.

GB remains in need of partnering, however the search has narrowed to either side of divorced candidates.  Prospects for GB's next 60 years have further been boosted by the once sleepy 2 lane "Rt. 17 ocean highway" becoming new I-87, destined to put still sleepy Edenton, and GB's 9 industrial acres location, on the Map.
