Stan has always said the R22 sails best with the nose down. It's fun to  
move weight around the boat and seeing the difference in performance and  
handling. The Rhodes is a perfect boat for all sailors, beginners to experts. I  
spent several years trying different things with sail and weight 
adjustments. I  like to sail on the extreme edge, so I often try new and different 
things. The  rum is a constant however.

Rum is good, beer gives me gas. :)

Joyce  and I went out also. Wonderful. 15 knot winds with gusts. About 5.3
knots  at beam reach with sails reefed. This was the first time I've sailed
with a  full fresh water tank. Seems the weight up in the bow made the boat
handle  better.
