[Rhodes22-list] ROGER QUESTION?

The 326 should still controllable under single captain. Big jump from the
22, but the biggest reason is cabin space. With 2 separate berths, A/C HEat,
and all the other extras hopefully our sailing season will get a little
longer, and we can add a lot more weekend sailing to our summer agenda. Even
with rain now the weekend shouldn't be a total loss. Cabin fever won't set
in as quickly. Especially when it comes to our former process of bringing
all the canvas home to let dry out.
