2008 Rhodes 22

$38,899 | stafford, va, description, specifications.

2008 Rhodes 22 Pocket Sailor

This is one of the last from this well know custom builder. All updates have been done by his yard to the original one owner's specs. This 22 has it all. The motor has a jack plate for easy raising and lowering of the rarely needed outboard with only 10 hours. 

This Rhodes 22 has a new, never used main sail, new sheets (sail lines), fresh bottom paint and too many new items to list. This boat has always been in fresh water (on the Potomac) and has seen little to no use. Unless you buy a new one this is the closest you will ever get to a new one. 

This may be the last chance to own a Rhodes 22 by an Iconic builder know by few and revered by many as a master pocket sail builder. 

She has been maintained at the factory in North Carolina where, the bottom was professionally repainted. The boat has a 2008 8hp Yamaha T8 engine. It had a full service before it was brought to the factory and ran perfectly. This boat includes all standard equipment including upgrades as follows: cushions and 175 genoa. There is a sink with an electric faucet pump, a one burner butane stove and a large "built-in" cooler (easily removable) in the galley area. There is a separate head with a flushing toilet, holding tank or macerator.

The design of this boat makes it very stable on the water, virtually impossible to capsize. It sails single handedly with no modifications and has room for the whole family with a cockpit 7'4" long and nearly 8' wide. It is a delightful pocket sailer. It can be sailed in light or high winds thanks to its innermast furling system, eight stays plus the 175% 200-sq. ft. genoa is roller-furled on the fore-stay and 100-sq. ft. mainsail rolls up into a 26' mast. With its 1.5 foot draft the Rhodes 22 can be sailed in 20" of water with the board up.

Equipment: Inner-Mast Mainsail Furling (new) Updated "Traveler" (new) Two Deep Cycle Batteries (2019 new) New Sheets (sail line) Fresh Water Tank (Deck Fill) 12 Volt Pressure Fresh Water System 2 Captain Swivel Chairs Roller Furling 175% Genoa 2008 8hp Yamaha T8 w/Electric Start & Charging system 2 Solar Panels Manual Outboard Motor Lift (new) (with fittings for an electric lift) Depth/Speed Instrument and GPS Radio Full Bimini Single Axle Trailer Swim Ladder Shore Power Inlet Burner Propane Ice Box Pop-Top Hiking Stick New large round fenders New L shaped fenders Three Anchors Motor Stand Life Preservers (6?)

1992 22' General Boats Rhodes 22

  • Description

Seller's Description

This is a Rhodes 22 sailboat, a 22-foot trailerable cruiser. It was built in 1992 and factory-reconditioned in 2005. It is in great shape, and comes fully equipped.

This sailboat is easy to sail single-handed: all the lines lead to the cockpit, and both sails furl, making them easy to handle without leaving the cockpit. Additionally, a “tiller clutch” allows to keep the rudder in place while trimming the sails.

Everything works, except maybe the solar panels (never tested), but I use shore power to charge the 2 batteries.

The boat comes with a single-axle trailer. Tires are new (2020).

Equipment: Outside: - in-mast furling mainsail (1 new 1 used) - roller furling jib (130% jib and 170% jib) - bimini (can be seen on one of the pictures) - 2 captain chairs - cockpit cushions - 13 lbs Danforth-style anchor - 8 hp Tohatsu outboard - fenders, lines…

Cabin: - Wide opening thanks to the “pop top” that slides up - Galley with sink (new fresh water tank) - Ice box - Dining table (can also be set in the cockpit) - Cushions, which can be arranged to form a bed in the main part of the cabin - V-berth, also with cushions - Head (manual pump - with waste water tank) - 2 opening hatches - Electric stove - VHF radio - Lights (2 in the main part of the cabin, 1 in the v-berth, 1 in the head)

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

  • SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

 USED RHODES 22 SAILBOATS

  all about used versions of general boats'.

         trailing/cruising masterpiece

An owner discovering he

can sail his new Rhodes from anywhere in its huge cockpit.  

We caught his comments

to  his new Rhodes friends:   

"Hoping to sail thorough

Thanksgiving . . . dread going through 4 months without sailing this boat.  

Absolutely love it." 

(all a bit distorted due to his lens/camera  mounting)  

We have an airport.   Drop in anytime: Blimp, Plane, one buyer came by helicopter.

RHODES:   The champion of single handed sailing.   Or a family of 12:  

Just drag a long stout line off the transom and let them all hang on.  I know from experience, they will love the ride.

Or with 7 in the cockpit (3 on each cockpit seat, 1 in one of the swivel seats) , 2 on the  foredeck's natural chaise lounge seating and 3 standing or sitting in the cabin, a family of 12 can enjoy a fun ride.  And we haven't even mentioned the 2 trouble makers in the Lazaret Brig.  So  OK, a family of 14.

From all the ongoing "testimonials" that do not get sent to General Boats, here is the one I stumbled across  that really got me nodding in agreement, because I plead guilty.  "The IMF main would not go in and I started cursing the builder.   Being an engineer, if only by degree, I began examining each element of the system until  I found the culprit in the last place I looked: It was me.  I was standing on the outhaul line."  

My advice:  Take this Rhodies e-mail's advice:

"I have a 25 years old recycled and everything works like new.  To paraphrase Stan, If it is hard to do, you ar​e doing it wrong ".

a scattered sampling

of what's in our 4 sites.

We do not favor testimonials;  buyers telling manufacturers  how pleased they are.   Peeking over the shoulder  of a  Rhodes owner chatting with another Rhodes owner, or with a  Rhodes  wannabe

Is really  much more  rewarding  for  shoppers.    if any owner has  anything negative to say,  let us  know,   we will take their rhodes  away from them.   with this  bit  of  transparency,  here,  from the  rhodes cheering squad, are some not-to-gb-emails  you will read, in our many web sites.  all  of  course, good.   all  basically  saying  the rhodes is one amazing sailboat.    some  going us  one better, "the rhodes is the caddilac of trailer sailboats"..

Copyright © general boats. All rights reserved.

ALL RECYCLED RHODES COME WITH THE NEW TRAVELER BAR INVENTION:  Its e ndless  loop line now makes for  easy traveler control, no matter what side the Skipper is sailing from.   And  Without  having

to cleat (ever) no less.  Get ready for Better Sail Shape, Better Pointing,  Better Performance.  (So simple, it's hard to believe it took so long to get around to this one.)  The  brite side, Better late than never has the triumphantly reviewed traveler encouraging GB to get back to the 'What's Next' desk before we have even have an idea of what is next is in the wings. 

"The New Traveler is super"

"The new traveler joy increases.  I sailed with my buddy today in trying wind conditions.  He is not a Rhodie, not his fault.  But as a seasoned sailor he was so impressed with every aspect of this new traveler - he was unable to contain his amazement."

"Received my new traveler.  Wow, what a device."

"GB has nailed it again.  The new traveler has one continuous line you simply push or pull. Improved sail shape and performance.  The new traveler with the  new 130 genoa, I am one happy sailor." Own a Rhodes and find performance outstanding with your original traveler?  No need to rush out and upgrade, unless you are looking for even more ease of handling and even better sailing perfomance. 

and our

SINGLE HANDING 

IS EVERY RHODES

MIDDLE NAME.

   GB's made by hand production line,

                        when the economy is good:

"Hi all. Been sailing since mid May in winds from 3 to 18 mph, boat performs flawlessly under all conditions." "launched,  motored to mooring, raised mast and took first sail of season. furling lines worked perfectly, as did everything else.  my third year and it just keeps getting better" "I wholeheartedly agree.  Everything about this boat is amazing.  Like the Timex watches of the sea, takes awailing and keeps on sailing." "The key thing is that my wife really likes eveything about the boat - the looks, that it's spacious and comfortable both in the cockpit and the cabin, the ease of sailing it, the bimini top, etc."

Returning from a demonstration sail

at the Annapolis Show where you take the tiller and put her through all the gymnastics you like. .

Left.   Capsizing never enters this skipper's thoughts as he sails seated on the flared hull's comfortable gunnel. Moving his rear from a cockpit seat perch loads his boat with twice his single crew's live ballast.  He knows when the flare of the  hull hits pay water, the boat stops there.  He knows for a flatter ride, a tug on his main and/or genoa furling line has him sailing as flat as his mood desires.    And he knows if he doesn't want to sacrifice speed, lowering the boom (another Rhodes only)    lowers the  sail's  center of effort.  Full sail area remains in play.  More speed, less heel, brilliant. 

  • Owners Coop

These Rhodies are being followed by their pet tender at a distance that works well for tacking.

Re the Rhodes traveler bar invention, not the best of photos but you will note that the bottom, forward red line is not associated with the traveler car, as all other lines are.  Note this is the only line runing from one end of the bar to the other. This is the endless control line.  Simply push it or pull it from Port or Starboard seating and then let go.  That's it.     .

Two other Rhodes fans from the Far West caught boasting to friends with other boats:

 "my new boat just arrived and it sails wonderfully “ 

 “as I start my second season I’m looking forward   to learning more about this amazing boat.”

       All Rhodies boast about their cockpit being larger

      than friends with larger boats.    To the right the

      6th crew member (the Admiral) has the camera.
