Lee,
Shame on you for sticking up for Rose. Everyone on the list knows that Stan
is ALWAYS right. In all the years that I've been on the list and a Rhodes
owner, I have never found Stan to be wrong about anything.
Rummy.......stepping off the box and going straight for the bar. It's
Friday.....finally.
Saturday is my 60th birthday. Everyone raise a drink and toast me. I will
probably already be well toasted.

Joe,
I have a stern light you can see from the back and sides of the boat and a
light attached to the mast that you can see from the front and sides of the
boat, giving you 360 degrees of illumination. According to this that's all
you need:

I'm sure Rose would disagree but Stan is rarely wrong.
