Bob,
	Do you expect it to be shown at Annapolis?  Or are they waiting
for an upstart company to put an IMF on their boat - see:

Subject: Re: [Rhodes22-list] Water Tank

Does this mean that we can't have the latest water tank design from GB?
I 
guess I will either have to just sail the boat flat so the water tank 
doesn't leak, or keep the tank empty and just use it to store beach
towels 
and clean underwear...

Regardless, I'm still holding out for the Rhodes 26.
