[Rhodes22-list] Rhodes in NJ

[Jay Friedland]

Mike,
The NJ offshoot of Rhodies is alive and well with over a dozen active  
members in the lower Barnegat Bay. Many of us sail regularly,  
including weekdays and weekends, often sharing our sailing time time  
with other members. Sometimes we get guest appearances-Bill Effros is  
again joining us for a 6 year tradition on Father's Day weekend. We  
also get many newbies- John Taaffe met Rob Baldi and I at the end of  
a trip up the Tuckerton Creek, never knew the R22, became intrigued,  
and now is expecting delivery on a recycled Rhodes in June. The boats  
represented include several recycled, recently updated, and one of  
the most extravagant R22's made- the Michael Meltzer special, which  
is now for sale. You'll have access to all of them, should you want  
to see the differences.

You're close, so time on the water is a given, just pick your time.  
Aside from saving 10 hours traveling to Rummy, no plying the captain  
with bottles of rum is needed. I'm full time on LBI (Ship Bottom),  
and now slipping "s/v Wanderlust" 20 minutes from Little Egg Inlet to  
the ocean, so bay or ocean, it's your choice. Contact me by cell  
(201-803-5665).
Jay
