[Rhodes22-list] Boat Ramp Parking

[The Rhodes 22 Email List]

Put a bicycle in the back of your tow vehicle. After launching, tie up the boat, drive  the trailer to a nearby long term parking location, bike back. Lock up bike . Sail for a couple of days. Reverse the procedure to pick up the boat.

What is your location?  We are in SW Connecticut.
