[Rhodes22-list] Great Lakes Voyage

Tue Mar 12 10:42:55 EDT 2013

And I thought for all these many years (20+) that I was the only person in
Canada with a Rhodes 22. Now I find there are two in my neighbourhood if you
count Peter with his boat in NC - close enough I guess. Maybe we can
persuade him to switch the locations of his boat.

Anybody else out near eastern lake Ontario?
