Hi Doug, I am not planning another big group cruise until 2011, but I may do a small exploratory cruise into that area next summer. I'm just starting to do reserarch on the options for that, so your offer of help is timed perfectly. I'll contact you off list for more info.

Same here everyone ....Happy Thanksgiving from me, 'Jo and yes, of course...you guessed it ...the one and only "B" man!!! I also cannot even tell you how much pleasure this group has brought to my life over the last 4 years. We've made friends that otherwise we would have never met. And what an outstanding and eclectic group it is. I've met everyone from a crazy Lineman from the Northwest, retirees from Texas, a Potato expert that has traveled the world, medical folks, writers/authors/journalists, corporate executives, extremely successful business folks, "average Joes" just like myself...and the list goes on and on. Incredible. The coolest thing? When we all get together I have yet to see an ego in the bunch. It's a beautiful thing. So....thank you Monty Group for 4 years of sharing information, helpful hints, conversation, company, get-togethers, and most importantly, FRIENDSHIP. You have made my life richer by far and I mean that sincerely. And I would like to throw in there....THANK YOU to all that are serving our country both here and overseas. Regardless of any politics...the men and women who volunteer to put it all on the line because they believe in our country are what has made, and will continue to make, everything that we enjoy possible. THANK YOU THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! from the bottom of my heart. Sean, 'Jo and yes, of course...Bosun! :-)

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! My favorite holiday. This group has been a source of so much enjoyment over the past several years, I want to thank you all. I'm amazed when I think of all the friends I've made and the trips we've enjoyed together because of this list. Have a great day, and I look forward to meeting more of you at the big event at Lake Havusu. Larry Yake

Hi Joe, The backing plates were the same size as the stanchion bases. They were mounted with 4 SS 1/4" bolts. I would go much larger, as space permits. Enjoy your turkey day too!

Hey Bonz And all interested in North Channel I hope you didn't change the date just for us. but we appreciate it . Lots of details to work out I'm sure. If you do it 2 years the 2nd will probably be bigger and better. Eldor and Dorothy M17 Motu iti

Hi Joe, That was me that commented on the cracked deck at the stanchion base. There were backing plates under them, however, not very large in area to distribute the force. The problem may never exist as long as the stanchion doesn't receive any horizontal forces. Hard to guarantee that on a sailboat.
