[Rhodes22-list] Quick introduction

[Jay of the Black Tower]

Hello, 
My name is Jay and I have never sailed a Rhodes22. Now that I have that 
grevious sin confession out of the way let me say that I am in love with the 
boat. Madly. 
 I saw my first Rhodes a week ago for sail in the parking lot of a church. 
And now I have to own one... simple. Obsessive I know but simple. 
 This particular sweety is out of my range I am afraid. Its a 94 flawless. 
And they want 20-26. Which seemed excessive to me as I can get one from 
General for 27k. Anyhow, I am now trolling the magazines, internet etc for 
one in my price range. 
 If you all have any advice for someone looking for their first Rhodes I 
would surely appreciate the help. This will be my first all alone sailboat 
purchase. 
 Thanks all, and thanks for letting me pester ya..
 out,
Jay
