[Rhodes22-list] Crusier not a racer? Let's fix this ! Introducing the R22 2.0

[Mary Lou Troy]

John,
Take a look at the Left Coast Dart

http://www.eskimo.com/~leftcst/iWeb/Left_Coast/The_Dart.html

The 6 foot draft would be a real limiting factor on the Chesapeake. 
It doesn't sail with the board up. Neat boat though.

I've always liked the Js too.
