subject: [Paddlewise] Open Water Shell for Sale - San Diego
Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2000 07:57:37 -0600
For sale, best offer: 21-foot, home-made, open water single shell. It 
appears to be a copy of the Maas Aero 21 
(http://www.joyofrowing.com/maasaero.html). It needs a new seat, but 
otherwise it is in excellent condition. I believe the construction is 
laminated cedar and fiberglass. Five sculls are included.

This shell was made by my brother-in-law, Colin Campbell, who died last 
week. He often rowed it on Mission Bay in San Diego. Rather than see it 
trashed, his son Allan, his sister Linda, and I would like someone to have 
it who would enjoy it as much as he did. Colin was a talented sculptor of 
wildlife working in a difficult medium -- sheet copper, brass, and 
stainless steel -- and he put as much effort and attention to detail into 
the shell as he did one of his sculptures.

Since none of the family lives anywhere close to San Diego, Ed Gillet and 
Katie Kampe graciously volunteered to store the shell at Southwest Kayaks 
and Rowing until it could be sold. They are located across Ingraham from 
Sea World, and their phone number is (619) 222-3616. Their Web site is at 
http://www.swkayak.com/. Katie is the one to talk to about it; she knows 
its monetary value better than we do.

We are very grateful to Ed and Katie for helping us in this way.
