I have seen 3 double digit Southeast Island Lighthouses now without rods and a single digit without a rod. I would say it might be possible that he has a fake Southeast Block Island with a rod, especially if nobody else has one. If it is real it must have slipped through the cracks or why would HL say consistently that they made none with rods.

I have New London Ledge with a rod and have seen 2 others, although I don't know what that has to do with Southeast Block not having a rod.

The main reason that I keep pointing this out is that after the last time this subject came up, there was a Southeast Block Island on eBay listed as having a rod. It did not. So until some other people come forward with them, I would be very sure before bidding or buying a Southeast Block Island that is listed as having a rod.

Who knows maybe they tried one or two to see what it would look like with a rod.
