Hey Doc, what's the story with Harrington anyway? Years ago they were the tops as far as my type fishing/ rodbuilding. ( Heavier surf rods,25#to 40# class) I've heard so many different stories none of which I've been able to verify. Their 552 was a great blank. Are they still in business? Website? Any info would be appreciated. Every once in a while, I'll hear of a blank or rod for rebuild but some of these folks are crazy with their asking prices. Anyway, I think I'll cash in some frequent flyer miles a make it to the next show. Lotsa folks I'd like meet in person. You and Tom K. for sure.

I have been in touch with Jeanie Harrington and she sold the business to the two guys I mentioned in the first thread. They are working on opening a shop in Oregon and Jeanie is on contract to help them with the start up operation. That is all I know for now but good news for all those who love their Harnells.
