[Rhodes22-list] Dazed and Confused

[Benjamin Cittadino]

Hi again Folks;

While waiting for a response to my inquiry about whether General Boat still exists, whether the Certificate of Support exists, and what the best way to go about selling my boat is, I took a walk back through time in the archive and found this from Stan:
"To all the great Rhodes owners on the List (persona non grata know who 
you are):


As it must to all who pass this way, unless a strategic partner(s) line 
is tossed, the Rhodes 22 is being stocked for its sail into the sunset.

Whatever gods may be, having collectively conspired with their tools of 
death (Elton's), dementia (Rose's) and old age (mine), are sending the 
Rhodes on its final sail to parts unknown.

For private sale buyers and sellers who negotiated the C of S program 
out at their closings, the parts department is now closed.  GB 
Commitments, and plant projects under way, continue being honored.

Thanks to all Rhodies who contributed to such a long running, fun 
adventure.  The Annapolis Show, being paid for, must go on.  For those 
who can make it, if I can, will see you then.

That was posted more than one year ago in May 2017. It sure sounds like Stan was closing up shop or at least looking for a buyer or partner. 
In light of the flat out statement by one contributor that the place is up and running it sounds even stranger that they can’t be reached by phone. 
I will surely be happy to give folks details about my boat (she’s a peach) directly but it sure would be nice to get a detailed straight story about where things stand with the business. I see a recent comment by Stan on this list so I am also a bit dazed about why he hasn’t chimed in with the facts. Maybe he’s traveling . Oh well, thanks to all
