Hi Tom,
I'm not able to attend the Sailboat Show this year.
I keep my boat on Kent Island. As of yesterday, October 13th, the 'odometer' on my Garmin indicated that I have sailed over 1300 nautical miles in the last 4 years on the Chester River and the Bay.
The folks at the show likely have decades more experience than I have with this amazing vessel. But I may be able to offer some insight about sailing the Rhodes in our area.
Regards,
Bob Garrant
