[Rhodes22-list] New addition to the family: Nautisaurus

[Caesar Paul]

Steven,

I lived in Needham for about three years, close to Babson College.

The better half lectured there, while I attended Gordon Conwell Seminary.  Was 
not into sailing although we considered briefly the possibility of joining the 
Charles River Sailing Club after seeing about two dozen sun fish type sailboats 
out on the water.

FYI,

I have used a 4 & 5 HP for 7 years in Mass Bay. Never needed more  
power even w 35k winds & 4' seas.
