If so do you mind sending me his contact info? I order hundreds of thousands worth of stuff throughout the year, I can always use another good contact.

I will check with him next week when I sail up there, but I doubt it. He owns the marina and a railway for fun, not for profit. The way I met him, is he had a 46' Nauticat motorsailor (heavy duty--full pilot house, ect...Maine boat). He came to stay at my marina one weekend and the compressor on his fridge went out. He had a handicapped child, that also had severe diabetes. I put her medicine in the ship's store in the beer cooler, gave him a key and run of the place, and drove to richmond myself to pick up a new compressor, and had my guys install it for free. I have kept up with him for 13 years now, and if I bareboat, I always cruise up there and spend the night on him at Solomons (i also bring him a bushel of softcrabs and a bunch of booze). I will let you know.
