> feet in height, I was able to temper my craving, at least somewhat, and 
> reduce my length on deck by 2 feet. Yes, I bought a Pacific Seacraft

> What say you all??? No stonings in the making I hope. :-) :-) I'd like to

> Oh, by the way, this means I won't be able to defend my Spitzer Cup 
> Invitational Rhodes 22 Regatta Championship next September. I will however 
> be there (our reservations are already made) with my new (to me) boat, 
> provided every one agrees not to throw rocks. I will have this fine brass 
> cup polished up for the next champion. Maybe I can fill in as the new buoy
