It is with great reluctance (I can barely type this email), that I've decided to sell my Rhodes22 and trailer... been too busy with a house renovation to sail.  My Mom passed away a few months ago; I'm wrapping up affairs here in VA and preparing to go traveling and resettle "somewhere else"... I'll regroup and figure out how much sailing I do once I get settled again (if ever).

It is in the water at the moment in Hampton, VA... I just ordered 2 new tires for the trailer which is a dual-axle trailer with a new electronic brake setup and break-away brake; 2 new tires; new wiring harness and lights.



I haven't yet decided on price nor whether to have repairs done... I'm in communication with Stan to get estimates and valuation.



If interested, contact me back-channel at saroj at pathfind.net
