[Rhodes22-list] Another new GB 22 Owner

[Graham Stewart]

Welcome Brian. I too have a 76 Rhodes which I have restored extensively over the last while. I have posted to the list a fair bit of information about the restoration as I went along - it took about 6 years - so I would be happy to discuss anything about the restoration with you.
All the best,
Graham

Brian,
Thanks for the intro and welcome to "da list".  My first Rhodes was a '76 and now I have a  2004 because I wanted the IMF and the furling jib.  Bring on the questions! - rob

All, 

I’m new to the list as of today.  I finally got my own ’76 Rhodes 22 here in NE Ohio.  I bought mine from someone who had planned to partially bury it in the ground for his kids to play pirates.  Stan already told me he didn’t build mine which scared me initially.  My journey to ownership was long.  I met Stan in person back in 2009 when I was first looking at buying direct from the plant.  I was stationed just south of Edenton at the time.  I was hooked, I just couldn’t commit then.  In between, I owned and sailed a
Catalina 18, Com-Pac 23, and a Seaward 24.       

Stan, thanks for designing an outstanding product.  If it was any other boat I would have ran, but I know the Rhodes' structure and (hopefully contractor
>) quality is solid.  Now it's time for the elbow grease and frequent 
>parts
requests.  

To the others here on the list, I will admit I've been lurking around and learning from all of you.  I didn't want to join until I had my own Rhodes though.  Stan already sent my Certificate of Support for which I initially paid, but now need to upgrade for the CO-OP level of membership.  
Brian
