    I'm sure this is a long shot, but does anybody in the anaheim area have a skimmer they would trade for a brand new in box RW-8 wavemaker? If not for trade, maybe a good deal on selling one? I cursed myself yesterday by posting about my luck turning around, because my skimmer took a **** last...
