[Rhodes22-list] New Rhodie in N.J.

[Jay Friedland]

Phyllis -
Congratulations. I'm glad you stood me up for biting the bullet. Offer 
stands through Thanksgiving, although today's steady 15 kt. winds were 
the best yet out of  a truly great sailing season. (Remember, steer the 
trailer, et al from the bottom of the steering wheel to get 
proficient).

Good luck, again, and look to the list for all your concerns.
Jay
