Bed-It Tape:
Rod aka "Mainesail" is the guy who developed it along with another company.
He survived a stroke last year. He closed down but is now it starting to have
it made again.
The factory he had custom making it is backlogged with other clients.

Looking to buy a new roll of Bed-it butyl tape. Anybody buy it recently?
Seems the old supplier has a dead end link to "sailboatowners.com".
I tried a few google searches but they were all dead ends except one selling a
roll for $40. I have a roll from SailRite that is crap. It was fine when
