    Hi Jan,

    Thanks for the URL. I can't tell you how much time I've wasted looking
    for that. I was beginning to think they had gone out of business and
    were no longer to be found. Would have thought google and dogpile would
    have been able to find it. Did you search for it (which search engine?)
    or did you have it at the ready? I was beginning to think the Edson was
    the only game in town.

    Oddly enough, the Wurtz URL was also a help since it was something I was
    considering looking for until recently. A Crealock 37 on the way back to
    Hawaii was having that put on their mast about a week ago here in the
    boatyard. The rigger wasn't to "hot" about it since the cable moved and
    he thought it might be prone to chafe. Using that as a "yardstick" I
    tossed that out. I don't want to add to the repair costs in exotic
    places. OTOH, self leveling is _very_ attractive for obvious reasons.

    Anyone out there ever have experience with either of these _mast
    mounted_ solutions?

    Thanks.
