[Rhodes22-list] My First Hello

[S/V Lark]

Welcome Steve.

When I joined a year ago my initiation was simple.  I had to testify that I
had opposing thumbs, therefore at least genus Homo, and declare my favorite
rum.

The boat fits my needs well.  I've been out a dozen times this year, on
water too cold with winds too high to single hand my Buccaneer 18.  If you
haven't sailed this 22 yet I suspect somebody down your way will volunteer a
daysail.   Otherwise road trip!

I can launch or haul out in about 2 hours.  Due to an aborted cruise, I had
a little extra practice in April.   I have the mast crane and can do it
alone.   It would take half a day to demo the boat, plus time on the water. 
Unless I was buying a cheap project I would want to inspect on the hard,
test for leaks and watch the rigging process while looking for any missing
parts.  But I bought a factory refit, so I had no worries.
