[Rhodes22-list] APPLAUSE!

[Mary Lou Troy]

Thanks for your comments Doug. glad you found it helpful.

Again, sorry we missed you. We ended up getting to Deale around 3 p.m. 
Friday and leaving around 10 a.m. Sat. Spent part of that time worrying 
about one of our members who was coming in engineless. She finally got the 
diesel started as she was coming north up Herring Bay after sailing down 
from Rock Hall. The engine quit as she was motoring under the Bay Bridge. 
Fred and a couple of other association members went out to meet her in 
dinghies in case the engine quit again but she was fine.

Red Rover is gorgeous. Several members of our sailing association pointed 
her out to us.

Mary Lou
