Ron,
Welcome to the Rhodes group. I know many list members are still  
vacationing, but I suspect you will get a ton of answers. Which great lake and  where 
are you out of?

My wife  and I are seriously looking at the Rhodes 22 and we thought we  
would
ask
some questions of the group.

We are looking for a boat  that will make a good boat to sail in our
retirement.
We like to go  cruising in the Great Lakes for a week or so at a time as 
well
as
day  sailing. We were wondering how many of you do trips and how  adaptable
this
boat is to do this. If the boat carries 15 gal. of water,  what do you do
about
the extra water you need if you want to be out away  from civilization for a
reasonable amount of time?

What size vehicel  is needed to tow the boat without putting too much stress
on
your  vehicle.

How satisfied are you with your Rhodes vs. other boats in this  category?

We want a boat that will be easy to handle as we age and not  be something 
we
have to constantly chase repairs for. If we get a recycled  Rhodes, does the
factory fix anything that needs repaired including leaks,  etc?

Not sure what else to ask. Where can I find cruising/trip stories  by owners
of
RHodes 22s?

Thanks for your  help!

Ron
