Joe,
Big Water marina is no stranger to having a few R22's tied up. Someone you  
must meet is a guy named Rodger that works at the marina and lives on his 
Hunter  37 at the marina. I live on Lake Hartwell about six miles from Big 
Water (by  water) and you will find me out sailing just about any time there 
is a hint of  wind. I have a yellow hulled boat which is impossible to miss.

As in some salty, snug  taverns along  life’s quays, I have a feeling
that this place harbors friends I haven’t  met yet.   Due to the magic of 
the
nabble search feature and  occasional checking in over the years, many of 
you
are not strangers to  me.   I want to thank you all for sharing your
contributions and  stories to the list so dreamers like me could keep their
dream  alive.   I just placed an order with Stan for a recycled Rhodes to  
be
delivered late summer.   My name is Joe Riley and I recently  returned to 
the
US after many years working and living in Southeast Asia,  mostly in
Singapore.  I now live in Athens, Georgia.  Like many  others, I have had 
the
Rhodes 22 dream for some time.  I saw my first  Rhodes 22 about 15 years ago
at the Annapolis boat show.   I plan  to sail out of Big Water marina on 
Lake
Hartwell and occasionally out of  the Magothy River on the Chesapeake. The
Georgia coast, Salem Mass and  Oriental NC are other areas I would like to
explore.     I  am interested in connecting with all of you and especially
people who sail  in these places.  If possible, I would like to take a look
at your  boat and see what options I might consider adding to mine.   I  
would
enjoy getting more sail time in too should you be interested in a  crew
member with modest skills and a bottle of rum.   After years  spent on other
people’s boats, I am looking forward to years on my own good  “old” boat.  

Joe
