One thing occurred to me, it might be a manufacturing "screw-up" =
control, when the boat is built the guys are suppose to cut a slot for =
the pin to travel down, it pretty early in the process. when they went =
to install the centerboard they might have found the slot missing and =
got the pin in though the side.

  I am sure what that is, it about the right hight for the pin(maybe a =
little to high), never seen it before, might be a repair patch of some =
sort, I e. the pin got forced thought the glass. I always seen the =
access done thought the cabin. but you boat is old enought that thier =
where still "expermenting". If you are going to openup the centerboard =
to paint and replace(tube, line, seal, etc) take a close look and think =
about glassing it over for a proper repair.=20

  More newbie questions:=20
  Now the Rhodes 22 is supposed to have a "centerboard" that drops down =
and not a swing keel that well....swings right? Is it really a board =
that swings and is called a "centerboard" and not a "swing keel" because =
it offers no ballast weight? Am I just being confused by terminology? Or =
do I have a hybrid? I have attached a pic of my hull with the board =
partially exposed. Is this what everyone's looks like? Can anyone hit in =
the head with a brick so I get it??=20
  Also, Roger, You gave me an excellent description of the holes drilled =
in the lower mast track for pin stops for the pop-top and goose neck. My =
boat only has one hole at 24'' from the bottom. Can you give me the =
heights of the other three holes?=20
