[The Rhodes 22 Email List]

Hi Chris....glad to see you're getting Opus back on the water. I am sure
the guys at the yard will pack and secure the boat for you, but I would
leave the O/B on the transom. Just make sure the bracket is secured in the
up position and lock it if you're over-nighting anywhere.

I use tie-downs so you may want to pick-up some of these before going to
Endenton - Habor Freight Tools have some reasonably priced ones. I know
it's obvious, but always be aware of the extra length and height clearance
of the trailer.

Have a great trip
