Uh, oh.

Here we go again.

I've got work to do, so I can't address this now.

Short answer -- get the 175 genny with IMF main.  That is the conventional rig for current generation of R-22s.  It is also the simplest and easiest to use sail plan I have ever seen.  It is ideal for beginners.  As you develop more skills, you can deploy the sails in ever more sophisticated ways.  If you want to.  Or not.

Thanks for the great replies!  I enjoyed the reading.  One more question: I would describe myself as an "intermediate" in terms of skill. Would it make sense to set up the Rhodes with a conventional rig, i.e. non-IMF main and a smaller geneoa to build up my skills until switching to the IMF/175 rig?

Also, is the "conventional" rig faster than the IMF/175?

Thanks again.
