Will the MMMSC 21-May-2016 or the RIMA 11-Jun-2016 launches be utilizing the CMASS HPR pads / rails ? If so I will need to collect what's out for maintenance within the next 2 weeks, which is doable if you need the gear.

If not, I will have the trailer ready for LPR/MPR only (pads 1-11), and the HPR equipment (pads A-D) will be ready by CMASS Amesbury 6-Aug-2016. Guy will be hosting the trailer from 21-May thru September, and then it returns to Atkinson, NH for fall 2016.

BTW, the CMASS flag has returned from the sail maker and should be good for another 15 years. Thanks, -Alan ///

Alan,
Thanks for getting the flag repaired; as you said, catching these things before they get out of hand makes repair feasible.

As to the HPR pads; I wrote in the thread that we'd have enough HPR pads available to keep lines short. If we could have two of the rod/1010 rail pads available, that would be a great help. Until we get the Spad Pad operational, we'll let the MMMSC 1515 take the abuse (Jim Moe has been looking at ways to improve on the equipment we have and may be putting a better design together).

And what are the HPR plans for the RIMRA launch in terms of CMASS equipment ?

And speaking of Jim M, he is working on 3 of the CMASS 10x10 rails at the moment. I will check in the trailer, I think there may be still be 2 rails in there.

BTW , I have the spad-pad uni-strut button patterns and other parts in my workshop.

I haven't contacted Ray about the set up at RIMRA yet. I will send an email to see what is needed.
