OTHER NEWS:
Please note the following from Jim Gretzky:
I have quite a few old 210 sails for sale. Some are in better shape than others. Many
are very serviceable for day sailing or practice. Some of the spinnakers could be used for someone getting into racing.
I also have much 210 hardware collected over the years from many old 210s. This collection now includes a silver Kenyon
mast and an aluminum boom. I also have the first fiberglass rudder ever fitted to a 210 – early 1960’s for
TOPAT.
Mains,
genoas, spinnakers, turtles. Sails galore! Great deals on decent used sails.
I also have levervangs, mast collars, mast steps and other bits and pieces in
stock. I can be reached at:
