[Rhodes22-list] Can I start a new topic?

I know for sure that the standard board doesn't fit into the diamond board
trunk.  There's a difference on how far forward the pivot is between the
two.  Perhaps the reverse would work, but I would guess that it probably
doesn't.

  Looking for one of the newer boat owners who may have pictures of 
their CB removed so I can compare specs.
I would like to know if the DIAMOND BOARD will fit into a Standard 
Trunk??

and what type of mechanical advantage is used?  Same threading or 
different?

I am willing to post pics of my restored board on line
but my  boat is considerably uglier than most,, so they may have to be 
rated R or X
depending upon the audience.

thanks
Lou
