[Rhodes22-list] Shopping for an R-22 -under $15k.

[Rick Lange]

I'll take up the cranky gauntlet on this one.
Stan, where did you
ever get the idea that a Catalina is a "fine boat"?  I've sailed
22's, 25's and 28's to consider as alternatives to my R-22.  Every one was
an exhausting experience due to weather helm, even with a
wheel.
They just don't compare to my R-22 that I can steer with my
pinky.
