Delivery Costs Doubled...

The sail is for an Alcort Mini-Fish, which is a lot smaller than a Sunfish. It is in "worn" condition with a few small spots of damage, which can be readily repaired with sail-tape.
The spars are in good shape, but are too short for a Sunfish. They are also missing the sail attachment clips.The mast, while damaged, is in "usable condition" for Phantom, Sunfish or Mini-Fish sailboats.
I bought no items, but somebody got a good deal on the rudder and board—which were being held for the buyer.
A friend is stopping by NB's "Rig-Right" in Rhode Island, with my new mast expected in three to six weeks—hand-delivered! He will be happy to deliver any other reasonably-sized parts to the Lakes Region at no cost.
Due to its "oversized" length, truck-delivery would double the cost of the mast!
