[Rhodes22-list] They call the wind "Mariah".

[Ronald Lipton]

I had a C-22 before I bought the Rhodes.  It is a nice boat, but the heavy keel
can be a pain - my daughter hurt her hand when the keel struck ground when
her hand was on the winch.  I would double check the keel winch and overall
quality of the keel first.
