[Rhodes22-list] Strictly Sail

All:
    I just wonder if Stan really has enough recyclable boats for all
these wanabees and sitting on the cusp?  Stan might have to make some
more hulls and call them recycles.  The only boats I've seen on the
market recently are top dollar boats.  I wish all these procrastinators
well.  I'll be sailing. _) _) _)

...Yes, we're on the cusp....but had a GREAT time at SS Chicago, and
especially w/Rhodies.....super bunch of really nice people....almost
makes
me feel guilty if we don't buy an R22...
