I know it's futile to seek consensus as to a make of boat. But, I'm
seriously considering renting for a variety of designs before buying. Has
anyone else rented a sailboat. Pros and cons? Good locations around the
Chesapeake? The closest place to my old sailing grounds is in Jersey.

I looked at some of the rental sailboats and of course, like everyone
else I have an opinion. I would suggest the catalina 30. It has more
room inside than any 30 I have every been on. Also if you like it and
decide to buy there are some incredible deals available.
