To Ron, don't feel bad I experience brain lapses once in a while and I fly airplanes as well as sail. I know a guy who took the hood off his airplane engine to inspect it, put it back on and forgot to fasten it. He added power and blew the hood into his prop and destroyed both. At least he was still on the ground.
You didn't mention whether yours is an inner mast furling system. That's what I have and I have trouble furling the main because I can tell the mast has been dropped. There is a big dent about 3/4 up the mast and the slot is narrower at that point. Trying to spread that slot is a lost cause because that mast is very strong. I'll need something like the jaws of life that the fire dept uses to spread that mast slot unless someone can give me a better idea. Hope your mast didn't suffer the same fate.
Thanks,

Chris, If you're going the single axle route, consider putting a tire
pressure monitoring system on the valves of each tire. They transmit a

in a tire. Stopping when you lose pressure could mean the difference
between
plugging the tire and re-inflating it and having to get a new tire and
possibly wheel.

Richard,
I'm glad you tried to fix it, but under the circumstances using 4200 is
probably a good option. Just for chuckles, who owned your boat previously.

Next Chapter of the Center Board leak. When I removed the center board cap,
it was obvious that there had been a repair by the previous owner so
following various peoples' advice I sanded and re-geled the surfaces.
Using no sealer, I refitted the rubber gasket and scfrewed down the cap
starting in the middle and working towards the ends. Once again off to the
nearest lake to do a test splash Once again water poured in in copious
quantities. Not quite as much as before, but enough to sink the boat if I
left her in the water.
Plan B....out with the 4200 and sealing both sides of the gasket.
This the Cap with the previous owner's repair:

Steve,
Technically speaking, what you have is the "General boats mast raising
system".

I disagree with Stephen on this one. I retro fitted the system to the current
Version obtained from Stan a few years ago. The block should be installed
permanently using 3M5200. You never should have to remove it and you want
it securely adhered.

re boat sale/C of S
Thanks Dan.
To the innocent Rhodies out there who still are disturbed by the GB C of
S program, just look at it as your broker cost since there is not a used
Rhodes sold that is not the end efforts of GB investments; to say
nothing of those investments supporting everyone's investment in their
Rhodes. And it's wonderful - you do not even have to go along with it
if you don't feel like it.
The Rhodes opened the Annapolis Sailboat show 44 years ago and has not
dropped a single year. GB is game for another 44 if Rhodes owners,
sellers and buyers are.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
A very unfortunate mishap occurred yesterday while I was putting Ozone away
for the winter. My wife and I were lowering the mast. I am having a
difficult time with my memory. Even though I have raised and lowered the
mast using Stan's instructions several times before, yesterday I got all
mixed up and couldn't remember. I had the crane attached to it's fixture on
the deck and attached to the appropriate shrouds. My wife asked me if she
should detach the shrouds on her side. I don't know why I said yes. I feel
so stupid. It was like my brain stopped working. You know what happened
next. The mast went down. The crane with fixture attached pooped out of
the deck and hit me in the back and side I might have a cracked rib.
Fortunately I didn't feel it (at the time) and it didn't knock me off the
boat and down to the concrete/blacktop below. The mast step popped out too.
The mast fell on a chain link fence which stopped it from hitting the
concrete.
Anyhow. The damage to Ozone was minor. Good clean holes no damage to the
structure (bless you Stan), dry wood underneath. Maststep is bent I don't
know if I should try to pound it back into shape or get a new one (where can
I get one)? Mast has two dings (mast still straight) where it hit the
fence. I don't think it is bent in enough to interfere with the operation
of the IMF or rub the sail too much.
What do you think I should do?
Do you believe in Guardian Angels? I do now! I could have been killed if
the crane hit me in the head and i took a plunge off the deck onto the
concrete. All I have is a very sore rib.
I also don't understand why I couldn't remember what to do when lowering the
mast. I don't understand how I was so confused with the process. It came
back to me after the accident. I feel so stupid.
Ron

Ron,
Sorry about your mishap. And it brings back memories.
If you don't have a workbench vice, ask someone who does to straighten out
the mast step. There's lots of advice on the list for remounting the mast
step.
You might want to try out the IMF before raising the mast next spring. Or
remove the sail and visually check the interior channel for the sail to be
sure the dents don't intrude.
Rick

Ron,
I'm glad all you have are some sore ribs. It could have been much worse. I
bet you will be more careful next time. You can probably straighten out the
mast step, but I would get a new one from Stan. Metal does strange things
when bent. It weakens and becomes brittle.

A very unfortunate mishap occurred yesterday while I was putting Ozone away
for the winter. My wife and I were lowering the mast. I am having a
difficult time with my memory. Even though I have raised and lowered the
mast using Stan's instructions several times before, yesterday I got all
mixed up and couldn't remember. I had the crane attached to it's fixture
on
the deck and attached to the appropriate shrouds. My wife asked me if she
should detach the shrouds on her side. I don't know why I said yes. I
feel
so stupid. It was like my brain stopped working. You know what happened
next. The mast went down. The crane with fixture attached pooped out of
the deck and hit me in the back and side I might have a cracked rib.
Fortunately I didn't feel it (at the time) and it didn't knock me off the
boat and down to the concrete/blacktop below. The mast step popped out
too.
The mast fell on a chain link fence which stopped it from hitting the
concrete.
Anyhow. The damage to Ozone was minor. Good clean holes no damage to the
structure (bless you Stan), dry wood underneath. Maststep is bent I don't
know if I should try to pound it back into shape or get a new one (where
can
I get one)? Mast has two dings (mast still straight) where it hit the
fence. I don't think it is bent in enough to interfere with the operation
of the IMF or rub the sail too much.
What do you think I should do?
Do you believe in Guardian Angels? I do now! I could have been killed if
the crane hit me in the head and i took a plunge off the deck onto the
concrete. All I have is a very sore rib.
I also don't understand why I couldn't remember what to do when lowering
the
mast. I don't understand how I was so confused with the process. It came
back to me after the accident. I feel so stupid.
Ron

Sorry about your accident and glad no one was worse injured. I had my mast
crash once also due to operator error. Since mast raising/lowering only
happens twice a year it's easy to forget something and it's a stressful
procedure anyway. I now have the procedure written down and I review or have
someone read it off as we go. I hammered my mast step back in shape but
would have been a lot easier and straighter to buy a new one.

Hope your ribs heal quickly and glad it wasn't worse.
Steve's got it right. A checklist is a good safeguard. We use ours
every time we use the crane.
That reminds me I need to redo ours as it got wet and then moldy and
it's not readable.

Ron,
Glad you are OK and the damage was minimal. A check list or Stan's instructions are critical. The mast raising/lowering process is the most demanding part of boat launching and takes very careful thinking. The mast step is easily replaced (I've did mine twice on my previous boat). I would just straighten out the mast step, others suggest replacing it. Your call. You've got a whole winter to think about it. - rob

Ron,
I echo everyone's sentiments. We feel your pain. I don't think there is a single one of us that hasn't done some lame thing to our boats (and ourselves). Thank you for sharing with us; it serves as a reminder to follow "the check list" when raising and lowering the mast. Like many of us, I have my own personalized check list that I keep in my hand during the whole raising/lowering process.

Claytor lake is also where I'll probably be for Boy Scout summer camp next
July with my son. If you ever sail during the week, maybe we could get
together as us adults definitely have some downtime.

My 81 R22 Trunk flange and Cap needed to be relined. I used 1/4" Garolite
(McMaster-Carr.com). I made a template of the original and had to use two
48" pieces which i lined up on top of the flange. I cut the holes with a
drill press but needed to correct some when the entire job was epoxied in.
The Cap I obviously took home and did the same way. Only used a bit of
silicone in the fastener holes to help seal the bit of extra space in some
of the holes. No leaks at all going on year 2.
When on dry land you can do a compression test with a garbage bag sealed
over the centerboard opening and a good dry vac set as a blower blowing air
into the underside of the slot. Brush a mix of soap and water around the
gasket and flange /cap to see if any bubbles are rising.
1/4" neoprene gasket holes made with standard hole punch. I advise using
USA SS cap bolts 1 1/4" and nylock nuts only. Tighten in a zig zag pattern.
No matter what you are doing, this is one of the toughest jobs in owning
this boat. I usually take out my settee to make room to get to the rear of
the board under the companionway.
I have pics of this job if anyone cares to see them, email me off list if
you want.

Hey All
I'm restoring a badly neglected Rhodes and I'm at the stage of putting the
center board back into the skeg keel.
I have a question about the lift line. On my centerboard, there are two
blocks about an inch apart. Does anyone have a schematic of how the line
runs through those blocks? Is there a block someplace up in the keel
trunk? If so, is it a 2:1 purchase kind of run or what?
This is what I'm thinking... is this correct?

Ditto here Ron. Glad injuries weren't worse. I have a step-by-step list
that my wife reads to me as I'm raising/lowering. And, I have her watch me
carefully throughout the process to make sure I'm doing exactly what the
instructions dictate. I'm always worried about confusing forward/aft lower
shrouds so I trace each one visually back to their chain plates before
raising/lowering. After hearing about your mishap now I will probably trace
each one twice.

Rob,
I think you will find there have been variations on how the lift line has been run over the years. There was some discussion about just skipping the blocks and just going to a direct lift. Here is a photo of my previous boat, a 76 model undergoing open trunk surgery. See if this helps at all. I believe the centerboard is on the left and the cap is on the right, upside down. - rob

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Center Board Lift Line
Hey All
I'm restoring a badly neglected Rhodes and I'm at the stage of putting the center board back into the skeg keel.
I have a question about the lift line. On my centerboard, there are two
blocks about an inch apart. Does anyone have a schematic of how the line runs through those blocks? Is there a block someplace up in the keel trunk? If so, is it a 2:1 purchase kind of run or what?
This is what I'm thinking... is this correct?

Rob,
Are you sure that is your boat? It looks exactly like the picture I
posted about 6
years ago after doing work on my centerboard.
Ron (Lipton - not the one who dropped the mast this year. I actually
also forgot the shroud connection a few years ago but caught it before
any serious consequences.)
