[Rhodes22-list] So about the centerboard

[Mary Lou Troy]

Stan,
All this time and you never told me. Of course I didn't think to ask 
at a time when you would have remembered which boat we had and these 
are the first pictures I've had. I think we'll move the knot in the 
pennant to raise it a bit.

When did you start installing diamond boards on new boats?

Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it.

Mary Lou
