HERE! HERE! I second that unsolicited endorsement of the Dr's fine work. After AMY came into my care, replacing the standing rig was one of the first upgrades I made. AMY being a flushdeck I figured that the only place I could go would have to be the SOURCE. Fortunately for Both of us, AMY and I, Mr. M was still in the business. AMY is still sporting her original White Gelcoat but I have purchased some very bright Red LP paint, I thought I'd make her at least look like a "Fast Lady" just waiting for the spring and more suitable conditions to dress her up. Currently I launch her out of Marina Del Rey, but I have been giving serious consideration to relocating, Havasu is one of the places on my short list, Southern Ventura County is also in contention. Cost of living and the congestion here is getting to crazy.

I added another set of lower shrouds that will probably be deleted in the future, but that is my burden, and I am okay with it. Unsolicited Testimonial The work was amazingly accurately measured considering what I sent him. Beautiful, as good as it gets, wire work, delivered on time and on budget (this is from an ex Marine Industry Professional) I was, am, are, impressed. Spot ON. So all of you who just might be looking up at your rig this Spring, remember - those of us with <20 year old rigging can sail with a smile on our wrinkled faces! Those of us with Dr. Wrinkleboat Wires are just grinnin' alllllllllll the time! Buy Shrouds and Stays from Dr Wrinkleboat hisself -None Finer! NFIW- just a happy customer!
