How do you do, My name is Gordon Reed. I was the service manager at
Robinhood for nine years and would like to offer my services to your group or anyone else who might need help with their Cape Dory questions or problems. I have run across most things that could and have happened to these boats and would be happy to help any way I can. I have also done nearly every modification and or repair you can imagine and would be happy to offer this info as well.
I would prefer to be contacted by e-mail (
greed@clinic.net) and give you permission to share said info as you see fit.
Good luck and happy sailing.
Regards, Gordon
