Hi Tom,=A0
If you'd be interested I am sure Jack would put your sail order in with our=
s. The more we get the better and we were right on the edge for the tenth s=
ail we needed. Let me know and I'll talk to Jack. If you have a different s=
ales guy already, it's not a problem--he will get the proper commission.
Regards,
Dave
