[Rhodes22-list] So about the centerboard

[Mary Lou Troy]

How 'bout that. Only took me 11 years to find out.

Question is, I still seem to recall a discussion on here though I 
couldn't find it in my archives or in my very cursory search of the 
list archives that the diamond board was a mid-90s option. Fretless 
is a 1991, recycled in 1998. I don't think Stan did any work on the 
centerboard at that time other than painting it and replacing the 
pennant. There is some previous owner work on the centerboard trunk. 
Wonder if the centerboard is original to the boat or a later 
replacement or........ ????

Rummy, are you 100% positive about the newer and more efficient part?
