I got mine from Pro Cycle in Dartmouth NS and I paid about $1500 tax included 3 years ago. Not sure what they cost now but I thought that price was good at the time. Went there to get parts for my bike and came home with a generator and no parts.that is just the crazy way I shop sometimes.impulse http://www.procycleonline.com/ _____ From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Richard N.

They are so quiet now that you almost can't hear them. I was on a C&C 37 last year an they used it for an hour or so during the day and it worked great. We were at Block Island and 10 feet from the boat you could not hear it.
