[Rhodes22-list] jersey shore

[Lynn Hoffman]

rob,

thank you, i had wondered about the jib/genny issue. i'll be sailing alone
most of the time and i'm intimidated by any sail that's bigger than my car.
i'll be sailing this year out of brick, up at the top of the bay. (i
summered for many years in harvey cedars, sailing my sea pearl 21- i miss
it a lot)

what did you get for a depth meter? i asked stan and he says ' use your
center board', but i think i'd like a bit more info than that. . . .

lbi is a bout a day's sail south of the marina where i'll keep the boat, so
look for a red hull and the name 'short course'.
