[Rhodes22-list] bunks on trailer causing dents

Hi Bill,
My bunks are also 2x6's and something you might want to check is the
brackets or plates that hold the bunks to the trailer are slotted and allow
the bunks to form to the bottom of the boat and should not be so tight as to
restrict movement. Also if the boards were replaced and not pre-bowed to the
shape of the boat before drilling the bolt holes the bolts may be against
the end of the slot in the brackets. This will cause the bunks to be to
flat and the boat will rest on the ends of the bunks and not evenly along
the entire length.

The hull of our 1980 Rhodes is being indented while on the trailer. I
don't know the history of the boat or the trailer, but am guessing the
trailer is the original, and looks like someone has recently reworked
it. The hull is being pushed in near the front support. While
difficult to measure the indention it seems to vary from 3/16" to
nearly a 1/2". Yesterday I spent an hour moving the boat forwards and
backwards on the trailer to find a spot that reduced the denting.
While moving the boat back on the trailer eventually did reduce the
denting, the boat was too far back and caused too much swaying while
on the road.
The support boards look to be pressure treated 2x4s. Is the the
typical size? I was thinking of redoing them with wider material
(2x10 ?) to spread the load. Any thoughts?
Thanks---
Bill

Bill ,Guys,
?
I have the same problem?at the same location on both the port on starboard
side.??My boat is an 86.
?
Two seasons ago I glassed in Fiberglas rib as a stiffener to prevent that
indentation on the port side.
I'm wondering if lengthening that 2 x 6 board would solve the problem.
I'm thinking about installing a support ?bracket along the center-line of
the trailer to support the bow and take some of the weight of the problem
area, but am uncertain about if it?would help.
I've have not heard or read of this problem on the list, and wondered if I
was the only one with this particular problem.
?
I'm all ears to learn how many of us have experienced this problem, and, how
is it addressed.
?

Chris--
Thanks. In addition to my cell not working in Edenton, I left my laptop in
DC.
How to install/wire the auto-tiller turned out to involve many circular
discussions. I was trying to follow Bill Wickman's setup, which is also the
one in a PS review of auto-tillers.
But I'm persuaded to install mine as Stan & Mark wanted to all along, using
a cantilever bracket that mounts to the cockpit wall/seatback. I assumed the
bracket would just be in the way when not using the auto-tiller, but it
turns out the bracket's in 2 parts and the bracket itself is removable. The
cable to the gps (and to an NMEA receiver if I were installing one) is wired
directly to the inside of the socket for the bracket. We're using your
suggestion for the power plug.
Despite the heat (103 degrees Friday) my 3rd trip to GB was great. Mostly I
went down to bring electronics
& confer on their installation. It was exciting to finally board my boat,
even if it is still inside the factory.
Also got out on Albemarle Sound for some sailing with Stan, who is--of
course--a laid-back & very good sailing instructor. Just as fine, finally
met the remarkable Rose--indeed, had a dinner of crab-stuffed flounder with
the two of them at a place called Waterman's.
I'd been on the R22 3 times before--with Lee, with you at Annapolis, & with
Mac McCready and Chris Geankoplis when Chris was in town a few weeks ago. I
noticed a pattern: I was always so delighted to be sailing again after a
quarter century, and the gear was so foreign to me (the most sophisticated
thing I'd ever used was a clam cleat!), that I was too blitzed by it all to
absorb anything about actually handling the R22. I think those were
necessary preliminary experiences and they certainly were fun, but I was
beginning to wonder if I'd ever feel competent on my own. Now I'm very eager
to get my boat launched in Apollo Beach.

I had NTS electonics install mine at Herrington Harbor North in Deale
Maryland and I think they just followed the diagram to connect the wires.
BTW I located my plug for the tiller pillot just under the cockpit bench so
it is out of the way and out of the weather and they shortened the cord so I
didn't have too much hanging out.

This is Peter Klappert using Stan's Apple computer. I'm in Edenton and
we are trying to follow Bill Wickman's suggestions for connecting an
auto tiller to a Garmin GPS--in this case the Raymarine ST1000 to a
Garmin 541s.
Can it be done without the $100 Garmin starter kit sold by West Marine?
If possible could someone who has done this call Mark (252 339 0400) or
me or Stan (252 312 9485) at the R22 plant? (My cell doesn't work here.)
Soon?!
Thanks very much

Someone asked about this last year and I promised to send pictures but never
did.
Well, here are some. Photo 1 is an an Equal-i-zer sway control weight
distributing hitch. It has two anti-sway bars that rest on "L" brackets
bolted to the trailer frame (photo 2). They are further restrained by
smaller inverted "L" clips that box in the sway bars. These are not
installed in the third photo, as I had already started to unhook to extend
the trailer tongue. It does not seem to interfere with the surge brakes.
Hope this helps

Bob--
Thanks for the photos. Your installation looks like Bill Wickman's setup &
Bill's looks like photos in a Practical Sailor review. I spent a lot of
electrons trying to persuade Stan (&, via Stan, Mark) that that's the way to
do it. I also provided a variety of absurdly expensive push-rod extensions
in order to make that arrangement work.
As I said in the reply to Chris Cowie, while at General Boats I finally
grasped the feasibility/practicality of their approach & I guess that's how
I'll go. In 3-4 months, if asked, I can report how well the cantilever
bracket setup works. Or doesn't.
Bill W has already sent the list a fine, detailed description of his
installation, with photos. For anyone interested, I attach the PS review
(with similar photos) and a Raymarine drawing of the cantilever mounting
bracket in action.
Thanks again,
P

Peter,
The best way to get "blitzed" on a R22 is with rum.

Chris--
Thanks. In addition to my cell not working in Edenton, I left my laptop in
DC.
How to install/wire the auto-tiller turned out to involve many circular
discussions. I was trying to follow Bill Wickman's setup, which is also the
one in a PS review of auto-tillers.
But I'm persuaded to install mine as Stan & Mark wanted to all along,
using a cantilever bracket that mounts to the cockpit wall/seatback. I
assumed
the bracket would just be in the way when not using the auto-tiller, but it
turns out the bracket's in 2 parts and the bracket itself is removable.
The cable to the gps (and to an NMEA receiver if I were installing one) is
wired directly to the inside of the socket for the bracket. We're using
your
suggestion for the power plug.
Despite the heat (103 degrees Friday) my 3rd trip to GB was great. Mostly
I went down to bring electronics
& confer on their installation. It was exciting to finally board my boat,
even if it is still inside the factory.
Also got out on Albemarle Sound for some sailing with Stan, who is--of
course--a laid-back & very good sailing instructor. Just as fine, finally
met
the remarkable Rose--indeed, had a dinner of crab-stuffed flounder with the
two of them at a place called Waterman's.
I'd been on the R22 3 times before--with Lee, with you at Annapolis, &
with Mac McCready and Chris Geankoplis when Chris was in town a few weeks
ago.
I noticed a pattern: I was always so delighted to be sailing again after a
quarter century, and the gear was so foreign to me (the most sophisticated
thing I'd ever used was a clam cleat!), that I was too blitzed by it all
to absorb anything about actually handling the R22. I think those were
necessary preliminary experiences and they certainly were fun, but I was
beginning to wonder if I'd ever feel competent on my own. Now I'm very
eager to
get my boat launched in Apollo Beach.
Best
P

I had NTS electonics install mine at Herrington Harbor North in Deale
Maryland and I think they just followed the diagram to connect the wires.
BTW
I located my plug for the tiller pillot just under the cockpit bench so it
is out of the way and out of the weather and they shortened the cord so I
didn't have too much hanging out.

This is Peter Klappert using Stan's Apple computer. I'm in Edenton and
we are trying to follow Bill Wickman's suggestions for connecting an
auto tiller to a Garmin GPS--in this case the Raymarine ST1000 to a
Garmin 541s.
Can it be done without the $100 Garmin starter kit sold by West Marine?
If possible could someone who has done this call Mark (252 339 0400) or
me or Stan (252 312 9485) at the R22 plant? (My cell doesn't work here.)
Soon?!
Thanks very much
P

Bill,
I recently replaced my bunks with new support boards and mine are 2 X 6's.
And as Art asked, Triad trailer? Here is a picture of mine during
reconstruction. - rob

Can someone explain how to secure the batten in the main. The cord and the
Velcro strap are obviously used for some purpose ..... but how to use them
is not obvious to me.
