[Rhodes22-list] Pat Maundrell - another question???

[Arthur H. Czerwonky]

Pat,
If you are looking for quality I would hang in there.  When an R22 becomes available, the word gets around on this source quickly.  You'll get an excellent sense of the cohesion within this large fleet.  Have you talked turkey with Stan at General Boats in Edenton?  Don't compromise the enjoyment of your sailing.  Most of the ISPs have provision for more than one email, just get your own address.
Cheers,
Art

>> Pat,
>>      You speak with so few words.  The Rhodes 22 list is a unique place on
>> the internet.  You have found a place where there are over a hundred 
>> people
>> with experience with sailboats and especially sailboats referred to as
>> pocket cruisers, specifically, the Rhodes 22.
>>       You stated that Rhodes told you that the boat is too old?  Was that
>> Phil Rhodes who told you that?  Phil Rhodes was the designer of the the
>> Rhodes 22.
>>       If you are interested in sailing and sailboats, you miight just want
>> to stick around on this email list for a while.  If you were interested in
>> bidding on a sailboat, you must have been interested in the boat?
>>       Have you heard the word "Blog"?  This email list is a specialized
>> blog about sailing and the Rhodes 22 in particular.  Let the cat out of 
>> the
>> bag and tell us why you asked in the first place.
>>        And which Rhodes told you the boat was too old?  There are many on
>> this list with boats made in 1974, 1975, 1976, and up.  Somebody insulted
>> them calling their boats "old".  Who did this insult?  Since you repeated
>> the insult, it is only fair that you tell us who did that dasterly deed.
