Welcome to the R22-list, Courtney.

Last weekend I arranged to purchase a R22, to be collected after I acquire a
trailer and the time to drive to Naples.  I'm a Rhodes-list newbie, but a
life-long sailor - been racing my Tanzer 16 since 1981.  My father sailed a
1976 Rhodes Continental in the 80s, that he kept on the Barnegat Bay in NJ.

I live and work in Chapel Hill and frequent Oriental several times a year.
About a month ago, was there for the Oriental Sailing Social and lucky
enough to win the Tanzer 16 dinghy class.  About a month from now, am
scheduled to crew with Lawrence Miller on his Tanzer 26 in the Oriental Cup
Regatta.  It's certainly a great place for sailing, and I love going there.

Where is your Rhodes Bounty II and who's doing the work?  It's a small
town - have you met Paul Welles or Billy Dixon?

Pete Thorn, Skipper
Tanzer 16  1427
