[Rhodes22-list] MONITORING LIST

[TN Rhodey]

JB,

I use to sail in San Diego area many years. I do miss the area. Great 
sailing!

Regarding Catalina....the R22 could handle Catalina easily. You need to use 
some common sense and keep an eye on the weather. From what I remember 
Catalina is under 30 miles off-shore. When I was 15 we motored an 11 foot 
Boston Whaler (not even center console) over to Catalina (twice!). The R22 
to could handle the trip to Catalina just fine. Chris G can tell you about 
taking his R22 to Sea of Cortez. Again no problems. The key is your skill 
and the weather. The right mix and you are good.
