[Rhodes22-list] Change of plans- Rig at the Mother Ship

[Bob and Kathy Quinn]

Geoff:  Be sure that you allow yourself some time to go through the rigging 
process at the mothership  You will be a much happier camper in the long run.  
Figure about 90 minutes to two hours to rig and de-rig  and prepare for travel.  
The folks at the factory are pretty adept at the process.

Not a great amount of time to assure your safety in the long run especially if 
you have never gone through the rigging process before.

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Change of plans

Rummy and Ben S:

Hi guys. I wanted to let you know what's going on with the boat. Things have
changed a bit. Elton isn't delivering it. Instead, I'm going to pick it up
next week and trail it back to Gulf Shores (weather permitting).
Unfortunately, they've just decided here at my marina (where my condo and
slip is) to rebuild some sea wall. This has put the boat ramp temporarily
out of commission and so I don't know exactly when I'll be able to launch.
Hopefully, if the job stays on schedule, the ramp should be available in a
couple of weeks. So, I thought after I got the boat here I'd take it nice
and slow while rigging it for the first time. Maybe even hook up the motor
to a hose and run it, etc. Luckily we have a boat storage area here where I
can do all this while waiting for the seawall work to be completed.

You guys were so nice to offer your help. I'm sorry I can't be more definite
with my plans. I was going to pick the boat up a while back but was afraid
to travel with all the snow and ice in the south.

Geoff
