[Rhodes22-list] Please help

[Jim Connolly]

Since my name got dropped, I thought I would reply.   My boat ('85 recycled
'03) is still on the trailer and for a variety of reasons probably will be
for a couple of more weeks.  When I launch, she will be moored in Salem
Harbor, MA.

Dan, Simon and Julie

You are all welcome to go for a sail if Greewnich Ct is not too far. My R22
is an 86 recycled in 2006. Anytime after June 28 would be fine. You can
contact me off list. Yo all will probably teach me as this is my 3rd season
sailing.
