Hi Dennis,
My company is called Acceleration Engineering (dv/dt the intersection of speed and time for the nerds out there) and we are located in MA. Much of our work is in the defense and aerospace industry. Our expanding manufacturing is where a previous post I made about what parts could we use as a community stemmed from. We have a few commercial products to be released soon and if you are a fan of spirits and wine (just guessing sailors here) check out this video of prototype revision 1
Aeris Preserved. We are about 6 weeks from releasing the first batch of product.
I see the posts about hinges and stanchion bases and I need that stuff as well but just a little time to clear my backlog however, needing lines and a partner that can support the defense industry I researched some of the main names and Marlow is motivated to support small business, was very customer focused, I made becoming a distributor reasonable, I moved forward with the application. I've used / have Endura and NER on my boat and I don't have anything negative to say but, also have Marlow line and there are advantages to availability, configurability and are of quality as they make lines for also rock climbing and the defense industry.
Appreciate everyone's engagement and check out the video above and ask any questions!
