Matt,
Stan is a very busy boat builder. This list will afford you the opportunity
to get "FREE" advice from owners, both past and present. This information
is totally FREE. In fact, we probably have more knowledge about the R22
than the builder. Stan spends most of his time building the boats for us and
we spend more time actually sailing.
I think if Stan would spend more time sailing and less time talking with
prospective or current owners, he might have a better disposition. Drinking
might also help him out. I know it does wonders for me.

Hi All,
In the effort to provide a newcomer's perspective, I'd like to point out
that new owners may be unaware that such a debate has been taking place.
As
the (broke) new owner of an inherited boat, the cost of a Certificate is
prohibitive, but I would be more than happy to pay for the time of an
experienced and knowledgeable Rhodes builder (or even Rhodes captain) on an
hourly basis.
And to comment on Elle's response from the other thread, there is a
difference between explaining a business policy and chastizing a potential
customer (or any person for that matter) for asking a question without
knowing the complex history of the answer.
An hourly fee for sage advice would help in two areas. First, the newcomer
may not have any knowledge of how the company operates, or its plan of
succession. The Certificate may be valid for a lifetime of sailing, but as
with any small business, the question of who will be there in the future to
provide that advice is important. Second, as with many pay-as-you-go
scenarios, the customer often recognizes the true value of the expert's
time, and may realize what a deal the Certificate represents.
Oh, and to give a brief summary of my first few months with our boat: she's
beautiful and functional; great for the Severn River; perfect for a new
sailor/captain; and she sure can take a whack on the bow pulpit/anchor.
