Marlan, I have trouble believing that this is a Rhodes 22. R22's don't sink. They are built with positive flotation. Rummy In a message dated 3/3/2010 12:21:18 P.M.

I'm not sure if this is a Rhodes or not. If it is will anyone out there save it? See attached document for photos Marlan Message: Per discussions with Washington Sailing Marina (WSM) there is still one boat down (see pic #1 and #2 on this page). It may be a Rhodes 22? Of recent vintage with ballpark before storm values of 5k or 10k or even 20k. At the going rate of 20 per foot for diver salvage the insurance company may be looking at the cost of salvaging for 4 or 5k a boat which may only now be worth much less. This may be an opportunity for a SCOW member to make an offer on this boat. Per WSM a sealed letter could be mailed to the slip holder. It may say something akin to – “I’m willing to pay _____ (amount) for this boat”. Note also that slip fees are due on this slip on April 1st, 2010.See the original archive post
