[Rhodes22-list] More on GPS

[Joseph Hadzima]

Bill, 

no I'm sorry I do not.

elle says there there is a good old boat race near her, and
said that the Rhodes 22 qualifies because the design is 25
years old.  She may know the PHRF since she seems to have a
few details about the race, and a new "arrest me red" boat!
