It was a fabulous day and I can't thank the Rhodes skippers enough for
coming over to help out with the kids. Roger and Betty, Ed and Peggy, and
of course Rummy: thanks a million for coming through for me and the kids!
Not sure what I would have done with 16 kids and only one boat? I mean the
Rhodes is not that big.
What a great day-weather was mid 60's, not a cloud anywhere and winds were
8-12 knots. The kids had a great time and they all got turns to steer the
boat and pull the ropes. Who knows, maybe we will have converted a couple
of them to lifelong sailors, and maybe even sell another R-22 in the
process!
Thanks again guys!
