[Rhodes22-list] Flagarant Advertising

Jeff,

He's making a list, checking it twice, going to find out who's...   Is that how the tune goes?

Are you retiring from Rhoadie sailing?

I have a very practical question so I can order a SS bimini - what is the boom height over the gunnel?  Would appreciate the input!

R,

Art
