[Rhodes22-list] Securing Boat To Trailer Question

[KUHN, LELAND]

Orin,

Welcome and hopefully your Rhodes will be in satisfactory shape.

Don't worry about Stan.  You can get free advice here on the list or
paid advice from Stan.  Either way you get what you pay for.

Good luck!

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Securing Boat To Trailer Question

Hello,

This is my first posting here and I'd like to say "HELLO" to all of the
list 
members.

I recently agreed to purchase a 1980 model Rhodes 22 and will be going
to get it 
in a couple of weeks.
At this time I've only seen photos and hope I don't have to backstroke
when I 
see it in person - 

Normally I wouldn't agree to purchase anything from photos alone but it
really 
does look nice and the owner genuine.

The trip home to Greensboro, NC will be around 225 - 250 miles so a
detailed 
inspection of the Triad Trailers trailer will of course be in order.
My real concern will be how to properly secure the Rhodes to the trailer
for 
this trip. 


I did call Stan at General Boats but all I got from him was an ear full
of 
ranting about how folks were calling him looking for free advise.
He made it very clear that if there wasn't anything (AKA money) in it
for him 
then basically I could pound sand. - WHEW -
I do plan on purchasing a few items from him in the future so maybe that
will 
put him back in a good mood. 

What recommendations would you folks have on securing the boat to the
trailer?
Photos would be a great help..

Thanks in advance,
Orin
