Bill W et al,

Would you like to join us over Labor Day sailing from Oriental to Ocracoke?
So far, our small fleet includes R22 "Raven" and Lawrence Miller's Tanzer
26
"XKE", slipped at Whitaker Creek, Oriental.  The date is all that's planned
so far and the more the merrier.

Any interested Rhodies~  come on down (up, across, whatever)!  All plans
are
subject to the weather.

PT
