[Rhodes22-list] Bought a boat!

[Bob Weber]

Congratulations Mimi,  It is nice to finally know what you want and then get

that anyone else could be happy with another boat.  Bob Weber

>Then went BACK to the Precisions.  Three times!

>Came home, and went on-line to search for a used one.  Found a Precision
