Hi i'm in the process of moving to Sarasota from Baltimore, MD. I have an Island Packet 380 that I keep in the Inner Harbor of Baltimore but I've come to find that even with a draft of 4'6" the IP380 is too big to sail around here, especially in Little Sarasota Bay. I'm not even sure I could get it into what will be my new marina at Pelican Cove, Sarasota, So.....I've been looking at smaller boats and after looking around and especially after several conversations with Stan Spitzer I"m pretty sure that a Rhodes 22 is the boat in my future. While I"ve seen the Rhodes 22 at the Annapolis boat show on several occasions, I"ve never actually been on her and of course have never sailed one So, the point of this email is to find out if there are other Rhodes 22 sailors in the Sarasota area (i.e. from Fort Myers to Tampa) that I could talk to and perhaps take a sail before I drive up to Edonton --Reuben Reuben Mezrich Baltimore, Inner Harbor (soon to be Pelican Cove in Sarasota) Cell: 410-499-8922See the original archive post
