Taras, I was planning to call them this week - that does seem a bit steep.
If someone had a template, I too have a good angle with a fabricator - my company works very closely with a company and we account for a major portion of their sales, so they have done a lot of high quality work for very little money in the past.
Alternately, if there are enough of us who need a kit right now, maybe Annapolis Sailing could give a discounted price on a group buy?
