  Peter,
  Welcome. There is at least one person who maybe can help you.
  However, you failed to tell where you are. That piece of information
  just
  might be helpful.
  Did you see this post?
  http://www.rhodes22.org/pipermail/rhodes22-list/2006-February/028606.html
  Is that your boat?
  Does that reference say it was made by General Boats? Hum, could it
  be this company?

  Does the boat in the pictures resemble your boat? Hum, makes you
  wonder. Did you know that
  Commodore Stan Spitzer makes the Rhodes 22? Now Stan is a young
  fellow, however, he just
  may know something about your boat. Just maybe he can direct you to
  some answers to your
  questions. Remember, his time is very valuable. There are several on
  this list waiting for him to
  make them new boats.
  Good Luck

  Thanx Ed K.   I had called Stan during the summer `05 about another
  probblem with the 17, and yes he remembered it. I didnt have all the
  mast stays and had to have some made locally which is Staten Island
  NY. I had the stays made in NJ. and the next week I lost the keel.
  Picture if you can the 17 with the mast up, no boom attached ,no
  sail, with a 3 horse motor out in a protected area of water, my wife
  and myself eating lunch like we were on a 40 ft sailboat. great fun
  till I came to the realization the the plug was not watertight. No
  one had explained that a metal sleeve was needed. The boat was free
  and well hopefully this season will go smoother.   Pete
