[Rhodes22-list] Bottom of IMF Tube

[Wally Buck]

Bill,

I would go to Stan for the flange. He made send you to Dwyer (sic?) Mast. I 
went to Stan for new gooseneck piece and he said I could order direct. When 
you put everything back together you will see what the holes in the black 
piece are for. I am pretty sure you had screws in there attached to the 
black rings through boom slider piece.. That hole should not be all the way 
through so the mast can rotate freely when furling. I have redrilled mine as 
one of the screws stripped out.
