[Rhodes22-list] New sailor

[Kathy Wood]

Rummy,

	I guess my hesitation here is the fact that I have 3 days of
sailing experience on a 14' Hunter and am afraid a boat that size may be
too much for me.

Kathy,
The R22 is a ideal family boat. The large cockpit is ideal for
socializing and the cabin can provide an out of the way area when
desired. Don't forget to teach the kids how to sail once you have
regained your skills.
You will also find that this is a very forgiving boat. We all have done
a number of stupid things and lived to tell the tail. My stupid thing
was something you aren't supposed to be able to do with a Rhodes, but I
won't go  into it again because it involved a large quantity of rum and
much wind and this  is a family site.
 
Rummy
