Patrick,
A quick search in your yellow pages under plastic will give the names of  
local dealers. Otherwise and the same search through Google will get you what 
 you need. Be sure you make it clear to the people you are speaking with 
that the  material needs to be UV resistant. 
You are not alone in that part of the country. You may actually see another 
 Rhodes sailing with you.

Thanks  all for the advice on materials.  I've been off the net a few  days.

Rummy, I will be trailer-sailing out of the Denver area.   Rookie this year.
I'll probably post something about my first sails when  the cold season
really slows down the list traffic and everyone is  bored.
Rummy and Andrew  - my motor lift parts are definitely not  aluminum, but I
did check out a local recycling outfit and couldn't find  any aluminum 
shapes
that would work.  I will inquire with Stan but I  think it is too old for
replacement parts so I will check on a new  lift.  However, my wife seems to
think the mortgage and Christmas are  more important than sailboat parts so 
I
need to do everything  on-the-cheap.  She is not hooked yet apparently.

Starboard may  work for me.  If you have any sources for the UV resistant,
high  density plastic please e-mial.  I e-mailed the manufacturer of  the
cutting board material I was considering and asked if it was UV  resistant.
The response e-mail was simply  "No".

-Patrick
