[Rhodes22-list] Some pre-arrival questions

[ed kroposki]

Tim:
	Do not go out and buy an anchor.  Stan usually includes one with the
boat, even if it is a little weathered, it is there, but the line might not
be.
	You need to read Mary Lou's section of the book, 'Sailing Small'.
	The Chesapeake group is good and knowledgeable bunch, they even have
some hangers on for good time's sake.
	Go down and inspect your boat in Edenton and cajole the Admiral of
Edenton to give you a demonstration in your boat.  His lessons are worth
more than you will pay for the boat.  Just ask if he ever got a call from a
harbormaster about sailing too fast and too close.

hi tim
welcome to the chesapeake..as to your questions...marylou and fred are in
the 
same situation regarding living and boating so im sure one of them will 
answer that....boatus policies will suffice for complete insurance and they
have 
very good rates...i use an 8 lbs danforth...the chesapeake cruising guide 
published by chesapeake magazine is the authority on cruising, also there is
a book 
of maryland chesapeake charts published by the md state dept of natural 
resources...both are available in most boating stores around the bay..we
have a few 
rhodies in rock hall including marylou and fred.im sure youll get to meet
them 
all....good luck
