[Rhodes22-list] looking for a Rhodes

Dear Cathy,

In the beginning I wasn't all that interested in Sailing, it was my husband
Philip's interest.  He had met Stan at the boat show in Florida while on
active duty and called me in Virginia.  He was interested in a recycled
boat.  Later we went together to the Annapolis boat show where I had the 
Opportunity to meet Stan, see a Rhodes first hand and had a mini sailing
lesson in which I was able to man the tiller.  I have to tell you how
impressed I was with the quality and handling of the Rhodes 22.  The design
and safety issues were my primary concerns as I can not swim. Having been a
former store manager, customer service is also an issue.  In this day and
age it is difficult to find quality, customer support and honesty.  It is
not easy to impress me. I was so impressed with the Rhodes 22 I talked my
husband into a brand new Rhodes.  We sail ours along the Chesapeake River.
The Rhodes 22 Makes and excellent river sailor and when other sail boats are
dead in the water due to low wind speed we are still sailing and have on
many occasion out maneuvered and passed much larger sailing vessels.  It is
also an excellent single sailing vessel.  Philip just sits back and I do all
the sailing now.  It's now MY SAIL BOAT which I have named Southern
Sweetness and hope to participate in some regattas this summer.  

As far as customer service and support you will not find anyone that can
come close to Stan.  I was so impressed and enjoy sailing so much that I
created a website www.militarymarina.com and without any compensation choose
to help promote the Rhodes 22 sailboat. I am not advertising.  I tell you
this only to help illustrate how happy and impressed I am with our Rhodes
22.  

In regards to your concern about the price tag, you get what you pay for and
with the Rhodes 22 it is Quality, Craftsmanship, Outstanding Customer
Support.  Should you choose to purchase a Rhodes I am sure you will not be
disappointed.

Sincerely,

Deena

Greg
much thanks for putting this on the board.. reminds me of that PBS  
special I taped last year called " Carrier"
so much respect for all those on board who have to do this esp the  
aviators...

but even the Paddle guys have stress too right!

Jim,
I neglected to say that under conditions I mentioned below, best heel is
from 12-15 degrees for maximum speed, and hull flare seems to help rather
than hinder. Son-in-law (rail meat) refers to inclinometer as the
"vomitometer" because at 15 degrees heel he's ready to toss his cookies, in
spite of my caution about doing it into the wind!

  Alan, Good information to log. I often sail sole which prevents rail 
  meat and limited use of our 175 head sail. My wife is aware of my 
  sailing skills and enjoys our boat ,"The Loon", best in the lift where 
  the cocktails don't tip. You did answer some of my concerns. I always 
  wondered if the Rhodes' flared hull had a negative affect on speed. The 
  loose footed main does compromise sail shape that can be compensated 
  for with use of the traveler and a makeshift boom vang system. If I can 
  keep the boom low, control the leece I can really see and feel a 
  difference in speed. Broad reach seems to be our best point of sail 
  compared with other boats.  Both running and beating normally I see a 
  lot of stearns in front of me. I could use a good capt. from the U of 
  Penn sailing team. I know some individuals from the pen but neither 
  them nor their probation officer had any sailing skills. Jim J

Alan,

We call it the screamometer on our boat.  I'm really a nice guy but I do
enjoy over-heeling just to watch the reaction.  I still remember the
first time it happened to me.  Crapometer comes to mind.

The first clip is from Carrier ... I haven't watched the second.  That was a
great series.

much thanks for putting this on the board.. reminds me of that PBS  
special I taped last year called " Carrier"
so much respect for all those on board who have to do this esp the  
aviators...

but even the Paddle guys have stress too right!

As an Air Force guy I got to spend
three months with the US Navy in the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea.  I
was stationed with the Joint Task Force Middle East on the USS LaSalle
Command and
Control ship during Desert Shield (escorting tankers in and out of Kuwait).
 Went for some R&R (rest and recuperation) on the USS Constellation
carrier.  I was on a COD (Carrier On Board delivery craft) going out and
coming back, so I got my "cat and trap" (catapult take off and trap
landing).  I was on the carrier for a week and the Navy fliers treated me
with tours of the Tomcats and F18s.  Observing nighttime launches and
recoveries from the deck and tower was a thrill.  I can only imagine what it
would
be like from the cockpit.   Bottom line:  we owe the men and women
who serve in the US Navy a debt of gratitude for their service.  The dangers
of daily operations and cramped quarters (the carrier was much more
comfortable than the LaSalle) made me appreciate the sacrifices endured by
our great Navy folks.

Gregg and Folks,

 

I have mentioned before that my oldest boy is a Navy F/A 18 pilot
currently on active duty. He is now deployed 

To the North Arabian Sea and Gulf of Oman  aboard the USS Dwight D
Eisenhower, a Nimitz-class nulear powered aircraft carrier. 

The US has 11 carriers (10 Nimitz class and one other, the Enterprise
Ben's squadron is VFA-83, the "Rampagers",

and they are flying close air support and recon missions over
Afghanistan which requires launching from the "boat", flying 

7 hrs (round trip) usually requiring three mid-air refuelings in all
types of weather, and landing at night on the carrier. As a Lieutenant
Commander 

He is also the Maintenance Dept Head and responsible for supervising
that group of officers and enlisted people. On his last deployment he

Served as Air Wing "Paddles", the officer in charge of the people who
are on deck bringing the planes in for final approach (who are all
active pilots and take their turn flying missions when not on deck
"waving"). The carrier has about 5000 people aboard between the Air Wing
personnel and the Ship's Company. I got to go aboard and watch flight
operations last year on a ride between Jacksonville and Norfolk and it
was the thrill of a lifetime.

Attached is (I hope) his Christmas Card from his last deployment. As you
can tell from my going on and on I am a very proud father.

 

Ben was commissioned through the NROTC program at Duke (which also lead
to my commission in 1970 and my Dad's commission in 1944). It paid a
full tuition scholarship for Ben's education and if anybody has a son
(or daughter) interested in a military officer's career give me a shout
and I can give you more information. Thanks for the video, and the
chance to brag about my boy.

We lost our Gulf Coast 23 to a marauding tree during Hurricane Ike and have
looked (fruitlessly) for a replacement since. Apparently the GC 23s weren't
well built and haven't held up through time. 

We haven't seen a Rhodes 22 in the flesh but it looks as though it has the
amenities we consider non-negotiable; enclosed head, shallow draft and
sleeping quarters for three small people.

We're on the Texas Gulf Coast and we sail bays and bayous. Think 2'-3' deep
water, miles wide. 

My husband is having sticker shock. Please tell me good things about the
Rhodes 22.

Bob,
You think and Navy ship is cramped? You ought to try living in an M1-A1  
tank with three other people. We ate, slept and did everything else inside  
those cans.

Cathy,
Not to fear. The R22 is worth every penny you spend on one. You won't find  
a better craft in the 22 foot range. The money you spend up front will be  
returned to you on the back side when you do decide to sell. We do have some

R22  owners in Texas. Perhaps they will jump in and offer to show you their 
pride and  joys.

What you are buying in a Rhodes 22 is quality design and construction  
that includes features and amenities found in larger more expensive  
boats.  Gb puts their efforts into the boats and not into advertising  
and expensive overhead.  The Rhodes with it's big boat features comes  
without the big boat headaches and cost.  I am sure others will  
provide usefull input.  Good luck in your boat shopping.

When the IMF is at it lowest position, the GB traveler  position is not 
very much lower than the boom.  If the traveler is at a higher position 
the traveler may be too high for the boom to be in its lower position.

Rummy:  I did not mean to imply in any way that the "other services" had it
made.  However, "constant living" on a deployed ship is definitely a
challenge.  I spent some time with 1st Cav in the Central Highlands in '67
while visiting my brother (I was up at DaNang).  It certainly was not
pleasant living.  

My hat is off to you.

Cathy:  A great boat and a great recreational investment.  We had our first
R22 for over 11 years and recovered  90% of our initial outlay.  We did
spend money keeping the boat in great shape.  Invested in new sails and
replaced other gear as necessary.  We found the boat to more than meet our
expectations.   Our two kids (near adults) when we picked up the boat and
two of our grandchildren pretty much learned to sail on the R22.    Stan at
General Boats will work with you on a re-cycled boat where you cannot go
wrong.

We moved to a larger cruising boat for five years after retirement and are
now back on an R22.  Having a ball sailing in shallow Florida waters. 

Bob

We lost our Gulf Coast 23 to a marauding tree during Hurricane Ike and have
looked (fruitlessly) for a replacement since. Apparently the GC 23s weren't
well built and haven't held up through time. 

We haven't seen a Rhodes 22 in the flesh but it looks as though it has the
amenities we consider non-negotiable; enclosed head, shallow draft and
sleeping quarters for three small people.

We're on the Texas Gulf Coast and we sail bays and bayous. Think 2'-3' deep
water, miles wide. 

My husband is having sticker shock. Please tell me good things about the
Rhodes 22.

Rummy;

If you don't mind saying, what years did you ride in the tank? I'm also
curious about the temperature inside them in the summer or hot climates?
A/C? In any event, thanks for your service. (Same to you Bob.)  Bob, were
you an aircrew member? What types?

Rummy,
 
Kind of like living on a Rhodes with a tank(ed) crew.  
 
I wasn't a turret-head but I thought you guys had it made.  I had to run
around behind you putting up and tearing down tents.
 
I really thought the Navy and Air Force had it much better until I toured a
sub and a carrier and took some hops to out-of-the-way air stations.  3
months a year in a tent looked better than 6 on a boat or 12 in the middle
of nowhere.
 
I just watched "The Hurt Locker" last night and now I really feel like I had
an easy job.
 
Lee

landing).  I was on the  carrier for a week and the Navy fliers treated me
with tours of the Tomcats  and F18s.  Observing nighttime launches and
recoveries from the deck  and tower was a thrill.  I can only imagine what
it would
be like from  the cockpit.   Bottom line:  we owe the men and women
who  serve in the US Navy a debt of gratitude for their service.  The
dangers  of daily operations and cramped quarters (the carrier was much more

comfortable than the LaSalle) made me appreciate the sacrifices endured by
our 
great Navy folks.

The first clip is from Carrier ... I haven't watched the  second.  That was

Greg
much  thanks for putting this on the board.. reminds me of that PBS  
special I taped last year called " Carrier"
so much respect for all  those on board who have to do this esp the 
aviators...

but  even the Paddle guys have stress too right!

Chris, thanks for forwarding this.  Good to know living near the fault
line in Seattle.

I was sitting in the top floor of an office buidling in Sunnyvale, CA,
a few miles down the road from Milpitas, when the 4.6 (?) quake
centered there hit last month, a few days before the quake in Haiti.
Quite an experience to see the building visilbly sway from the inside.
 All of us non-Californians in the meeting were wide-eyed.  All the
Californians laughed at us.  Which of course caused us to trash their
governaor, lifestyle and economy. And then the fight started.

Cathy, the recycled Rhodes is the way to go if you're on a budget.  Our '92
recycled boat was like a brand new boat when we got it and it was half the
cost of a new boat.  It easily sleeps three people, the amenities are great,
lots of options, the inner-furling main is a great big-boat feature, and the
motor lift is great if you want a power assist but even without the power
version, it's still easy to put the motor up and down.  It's easy to sail,
even for us relative newcomers to sailing and the fact that General Boats
only makes this one boat means you have a manufacturer who is totally
focused on this one boat, as opposed to seeing this as an entry level boat
that they hope to graduate you out of in short order.  And this list is an
invaluable resource for any question you might have.  All of these were the
reasons I bought my R-22 and I have never ever second-guessed my decision.
I've only had that decision reinforced year after year by everyone on this
list and Stan'!
 s involvement every step of the way.  How many other boat manufacturers
make it so easy to talk directly to the guy in charge whenever you want.
Take a visit down to Edenton and see for yourself.  It is well worth your
time and you can probably even pick out the boat that Stan will recycle for
you (at least, that's how it worked when I went down there).  You can even
stay for free at the factory in their "suite."  I couldn't recommend the
boat more highly.

Cathy:  A great boat and a great recreational investment.  We had our first
R22 
for over 11 years and recovered  90% of our initial outlay.  We did spend
money 
keeping the boat in great shape.  Invested in new sails and replaced other
gear 
as necessary.  We found the boat to more than meet our expectations.   Our
two 
kids (near adults) when we picked up the boat and two of our grandchildren 
pretty much learned to sail on the R22.    Stan at General Boats will work
with 
you on a re-cycled boat where you cannot go wrong.

We moved to a larger cruising boat for five years after retirement and are
now 
back on an R22.  Having a ball sailing in shallow Florida waters.

Cathy,
 
I'm real cheap and didn't want to spend a lot of money on my first boat.
The Rhodes wasn't the cheapest boat I considered but it was far and away the
best value.  If you do a true side-by-side comparison you'll see that you
get much more for your money compared to a less expensive boat.
 
Good luck!

Cathy,  

We've actually bought two Rhodes from Stan--a used one a couple of years ago
and a new one for 2010.  I think there are several boats besides a Rhodes
that will do what you've specified, but there's not another that has the
features that we've found to be particularly useful:  the flared hull that
keeps the boat dry and provides seating on the high side of the boat, the
cockpit that's bigger than any other in its class, the pop top that lets you
actually walk around while you're sailing and the IMF main that will get you
going and then back in quickly and simply.

I guess the only reason that no other boats, besides racing dinghies, have
flared hulls is expense.  I think it's a reason all by itself to buy a
Rhodes.  Since we only use ours as a daysailer, we've not ordered some of
Stan's many options, and this may be a way to keep your cost down.  Good
luck.

Steve & Linda.

looked (fruitlessly) for a replacement since. Apparently the GC 23s weren't
well built and haven't held up through time. 

We haven't seen a Rhodes 22 in the flesh but it looks as though it has the
amenities we consider non-negotiable; enclosed head, shallow draft and
sleeping quarters for three small people.

We're on the Texas Gulf Coast and we sail bays and bayous. Think 2'-3' deep
water, miles wide. 

My husband is having sticker shock. Please tell me good things about the
Rhodes 22.

Cathy

Best Christmas card that I've ever seen--easy to see why you're proud!

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Carrier Landings



Gregg and Folks,



I have mentioned before that my oldest boy is a Navy F/A 18 pilot
currently on active duty. He is now deployed

To the North Arabian Sea and Gulf of Oman  aboard the USS Dwight D
Eisenhower, a Nimitz-class nulear powered aircraft carrier.

The US has 11 carriers (10 Nimitz class and one other, the Enterprise
Ben's squadron is VFA-83, the "Rampagers",

and they are flying close air support and recon missions over
Afghanistan which requires launching from the "boat", flying

7 hrs (round trip) usually requiring three mid-air refuelings in all
types of weather, and landing at night on the carrier. As a Lieutenant
Commander

He is also the Maintenance Dept Head and responsible for supervising
that group of officers and enlisted people. On his last deployment he

Served as Air Wing "Paddles", the officer in charge of the people who
are on deck bringing the planes in for final approach (who are all
active pilots and take their turn flying missions when not on deck
"waving"). The carrier has about 5000 people aboard between the Air Wing
personnel and the Ship's Company. I got to go aboard and watch flight
operations last year on a ride between Jacksonville and Norfolk and it
was the thrill of a lifetime.

Attached is (I hope) his Christmas Card from his last deployment. As you
can tell from my going on and on I am a very proud father.



Ben was commissioned through the NROTC program at Duke (which also lead
to my commission in 1970 and my Dad's commission in 1944). It paid a
full tuition scholarship for Ben's education and if anybody has a son
(or daughter) interested in a military officer's career give me a shout
and I can give you more information. Thanks for the video, and the
chance to brag about my boy.

You know, It seemed reasonable but I almost always vet anything before
sending it on, but this time it was an afterthought, thanks!  Sounds like
the guy is a scum bag.
