[Rhodes22-list] Looking for these parts. Please help

[budconnor at earthlink.net]

MJ,
  could you post of picture of the boom attachment?  If the bolt is pulling out
of the plastic, then you might be able to tap it and use a larger size bolt,
but we would need to see a picture to better understand your need.
On the wood hatch door, a marine hardware store may be able to fabricate
a new one for you, or at least get you the marine plywood you need.
(I replaced mine with plexiglass, some folks replace theirs with starboard.)
I recommend getting your hatch done locally, to insure a proper fit.

-Bud
