> The Association has received an email from Ken Kloeber, a Catalina 30 sailor. He is looking to gather people for a group purchase on SmartPlug shore power systems. If enough join in, he hopes to get a direct price that would be lower than retailer pricing on the same item.

> Your Association isn’t endorsing this offer, nor have we researched it. We are simply relaying his request with the thought that if any of you may be interested, his efforts may be to your benefit.

> The discount would depend on the quantity -- but it would be well below Defender's price ($179.)  This can work only if we have enough quantity, so if anyone is interested in a Smart Plug somewhere below Defender pricing (and is not just tire kicking,) email me offline (or if responding on the   member list, copy me to make sure I see it) so I can get a solid idea on the quantity.
