[C320-list] More on Frig

[Robert E. Sloat]

John-Great and brilliant and so obvious in hindsight.  I have a little play 
in the ends of the shelves on Hull 894 and will stop by the hardware store 
after getting the rod diameters and needed length.  Thanks.

Now, how do I get hull speed beating in 4 knots true!
