Actually I have 3 kids ages 12, 16 and 18. As you might know I came to the
Rhodes after selling a 28 foot Albin Cumulus. I sold the hi-maintance Albin
because of extreme disinterest by the kids in the cruising experience.
I felt that I could single hand the Rhodes and that it would be cheap and
trouble free. That turned out to be true enough. Unfortunately a bad knee
(for decades) has been getting worse and it's difficult to move around the
boat with the requisite agility. Better to be safe then sorry so I am
(reluctantly) selling the boat.
PS I am considering a small motor sailer with a pilot house as more
appropriate to physical capabilities at this time in my life.
