I have a suggestion for others who might be tempted such a repair as well as a question for you. The suggestion: As your description implies, measurement of the slot is a devilish difficult problem to solve so I thought I would share how I eventually addressed this problem. As you know, the slot is not just a symmetrical rectangular hole. It is tapered along its length and height and this makes it difficult to measure. Also, just measuring the width of the hole doesn't necessarily tell you which side of the hole the problem is on. Measuring from the centerline was a challenge I could not overcome. Also, lugging the board in and out of the boat repeatedly and lifting it into the slot to check for points of friction was exhausting - especially for an old guy like me. As it turned out the solution to both problems was to make from a strip of plywood a piece that has the shape and dimensions of the midsection and widest part of the centerboard along its length. I put a cross pin at the pivot point so the piece could be lowered and raised with a string like the centerboard. By making this template in my shop I could be sure the sides were symmetrical around the centreline and thereby tell, when placed in the slot, which side of the hole had insufficient clearance. That at least gave me a good idea of where the trouble spots were which I could then check with the actual centreboard. If anyone would like a picture of my template just let me know. To measure the thickness of the centerboard at its thickest point I made extended calipers very similarly those shown in Lou's description. I thought I was brilliant at the time but now realized that the idea came from Lou. So much for genius. The question: I am wondering why you went the route of using G20 panels as patches - whatever G20 is. Why did you not gradually fill the voids in the sides with layers of thickened epoxy ultimately covered by a few layers of cloth? Fitting patches for such an inaccessible space seems daunting to say the least and I worry about any unfilled gaps that might be hidden between the patch and the concrete. One other point, when I was examining my keel I came to realize that there were substantial voids within the keel itself. The voids were not at the surface but extended right into the core. I have no idea whether they were there from the start of reflected erosion through the cracks in the bottom of the keel mentioned above. I drilled multiple holes through the outside of the keel and down into the keel through the cabin sole. I then injected almost three GALLONS of I don't know if I need to go the full route that you followed - I hope not - but I seem to have some of the same symptoms. I had had no trouble removing the board in the first place making me think that the sidewalls were still in place. I had large cracks at the very bottom of the hole where the sides of the cavity and the bottom of the keel join. The boat had been on shore for about 4 years when I understood to dig out and then fill the cracks with epoxy and cover the area in several layers of cloth. I "thought" the clearances were sufficient by making what were crude and totally inadequate measurements. When I reinstalled the board the gap was insufficient. As the comment above makes clear, measuring is far more complicated that one might think at first. I have ground out the marrow places primarily by using a 1 1/2" rotary sanding drum on the end of a 2' bit extender and powered by my electric hammer drill. I now need to again repair that area without simply making the gap too small again. I do NOT want to have to do this a third time. That might be the straw that..... Graham Stewart Agile.

Time is blocked off the schedule, its too late to change dates now. The boat is back on the hard, and loaded. OK weather to drive / rig Friday and Monday, but T storms are predicted all weekend. If its just rainy or scattered storms I'll hang by the marina and not travel much of the lake, but if its all day I'm kind of stuck. I was looking at Sandusky bay as semi protected water for a backup destination (inland canoeing in Indiana between storms and a hotel as plan D for desperation). Looking at google, I found East Harbor State Park's West harbor marina as a launch site, but that puts me directly into the lake proper. Is there a good launch facility or marina in the bay itself that anybody has experience with? I'm wiling to pay for a lift if needed. The water will be COLD and I am not an expert heavy water sailor (more experience in a canoe with big waves to be honest). Its hard to get time off, I'm desperately trying to salvage the 'vacation'. I'm also looking to protect both Tamiko and the new boat. I'm not eager to drive through Cleveland until I get a better feel for this mighty beast on a trailer. Its now further forward, so the tongue weight is safer. It seemed steady up to 60-65 mph, which may be about right for a heavy high boat behind an explorer? But if the alternative is sitting at home, I'm open to other ideas for a three nights on the water, preferably with marina / restaurant options. Somebody (I forget who) had plugged Cleveland Harbor behind the wall, so I'll watch their weather too. Where did you launch?

It was always a pleasure to see Elton at the Chicago boat show and sit, talk and try to sell boats. I was there the time he hit the black ice on I95, but persevered and got the boat to Chicago. It did need some cleaning up... He talked to me about his time in radio in Chicago but I never knew about his impact on radio in New York until I saw the obituary in the New York Times. It is clear from the article that Elton built a institution that was much loved in the New York area. I wish I had a chance to talk to him about the music.

Elton was a very good person in every way. I remember when he delivered my first Rhodes back in 96. Patiently answered all my questions and would not leave till he was sure I was comfortable sailing the Rhodes on my own.

And stories. What a wonderful legacy to have positively touched so many lives and brought joy to them. Our loss must be the gain of others. Alice I am standing by the seashore A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength, and I stand and watch until at last she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sun and sky come down to mingle with each other Then someone at my side says: "There she goes!" Gone where? Gone from my sight- that is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side and just as able to bear her load of living freight to the places of destination. Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just at the moment when someone at my side says, "There she goes!", there are other eyes watching her coming , and other voices ready to take up the the glad shout: "Here she comes!".

It appears that the problem may be related to the fact that your mail.com based emails (owned by 1&1) are being relayed through gmx (global mail exchange) in html format by your webmail based email client without a plain text portion. Gmx, a free email service, has been employed by spammers using html without a plain text portion to hide their messages from detection. As a result, html messages from gmx are being blocked by some providers. Before replying to this email, can you change your mail.com setting to send email in plain text and see if that solves the problem? To do so, log in to your email and click on "settings" (located in the lower left navigation portion of the page) and check the box next to "Always send e-mails as plain text (without formatting)" and then click "Save" if you want text-only e-mail to be your default.

The potential damage if the furling jib were to come loose is significantly greater than the inconvenience of removing or replacing the ring. Since my Rhodes is moored in the Nissequogue River and not in daily view, the loss of multiple stays could happen over a period of time or during a bad storm without my knowledge, setting the stage for a disaster.

Time is blocked off the schedule, its too late to change dates now. The boat is back on the hard, and loaded. OK weather to drive / rig Friday and Monday, but T storms are predicted all weekend. If its just rainy or scattered storms I'll hang by the marina and not travel much of the lake, but if its all day I'm kind of stuck. I was looking at Sandusky bay as semi protected water for a backup destination (inland canoeing in Indiana between storms and a hotel as plan D for desperation). Looking at google, I found East Harbor State Park's West harbor marina as a launch site, but that puts me directly into the lake proper. Is there a good launch facility or marina in the bay itself that anybody has experience with? I'm wiling to pay for a lift if needed. The water will be COLD and I am not an expert heavy water sailor (more experience in a canoe with big > waves to be honest). Its hard to get time off, I'm desperately trying to salvage the 'vacation'. I'm also looking to protect both Tamiko and the new boat. I'm not eager to drive through Cleveland until I get a better feel for this mighty beast on a trailer. Its now further forward, so the tongue weight is safer. It seemed steady up to 60-65 mph, which may be about right for a heavy high boat behind an explorer? But if the alternative is sitting at home, I'm open to other ideas for a three nights on the water, preferably with marina / restaurant options. Somebody (I forget who) had plugged Cleveland Harbor behind the wall, so I'll watch their weather too. Where did you launch?

Nice video. I really enjoyed seeing your boat and comparing it to my recently recycled 1998. Not many differences, but a few small ones. I wanted to mention one thing. You said you were pretty sure your two batteries were not both wired together and that you had a house battery and an engine battery. You might want to check that. I have two batteries and a switch with off, 1, 2, both, settings. But the one thing I discovered that Stan failed to do is separate the batteries. Both are either off or on, regardless of which of the 1, 2 or both settings I use. I could not access the wiring well enough to consider trying to change this, so I'll just live with it for now. I do know that I can hand crank the motor lift up and down and manually start the engine if I have to.

Everything on there will be about the boat; no cat videos, I promise. I got my boat lettering from Boat US today, but the weather is supposed to be cold and wet for the next few days, so that project is on the back burner for now.

Actually, it is a wood-epoxy composite called PlasTeak. I replaced the hatch cover with PlasTeak a few years ago and since it held up so well, I replaced everything else this year. My cockpit seats are stiffened. But even before doing that, I don't recall the teak trim creaking. Perhaps PlasTeak would be more quiet.

That might be a little far away for me to consider, but it's still very tempting as it sounds like a good solution for me otherwise. Can you tell me more about the Karavan trailer? Is it specific to the Rhodes 22?

It is 1994 vintage and galvanized and in very good condition so I thought that I might convert it to a bunk design and add an extension tongue. So far it has been just that, thought, since it works fairly well although it requires a very high tide for recovery without the extension. The Rhodes trailer (the one up for sale) is from the 80s and made of painted steel. It has hauled the boat without issue although I would not want to plan a long trip with it without additional work.

That might be a little far away for me to consider, but it's still very tempting as it sounds like a good solution for me otherwise. Can you tell me more about the Karavan trailer? Is it specific to the Rhodes 22?

My R-22 is a recycled 1987, and it has the standard centerboard. As I understand (from Stan) the same effect as that provided by the "Diamond Centerboard" can be obtained by deploying an old one about three quarters down. So, I do that. I don't know if it works (really) because I am not that savvy of a sailor. However, I trust Stan on any matter referring to his boat's performance.? So, there you have it.? Almost any question can be answered by checking on the "list"s archives."? Good luck getting your Rhodes. ???? By the way, don't waste your time fretting any details about the R-22.? Whatever model (year) you get, it will have been engineered to maximum efficiency. Every one of them sails like a dream and cuts a dashing image on water, even on the hard.? Almost every time I launch, someone pulls into the marina and asks what kind of boat I have. It caught their eyes as they drove past. Then, they spend some time eying her up from many angles and showering me with questions and flattering comments. Couple of years ago, a guy approached with stars in his eyes (I mean, really awe-struck). "Ah, this is a Rhodes-22! I've heard of them, but I've never actually seen one." He spent twenty minutes. It's a great boat to own, and it warms the hearts of sailing enthusiasts.? It can't provide sex.? But, Stan's probably working on that.

I'm still looking for my first Rhodes, and have some CB related questions: What year was the change from the CB shaped like the rudder to the diamond shape? Is the newer design sometimes retrofitted during the factory recycling process? I realize the new design has some advantages with the direct pull pendant and surface area vs frontal area ratio, but how much of a difference have owners who've experienced both designs really noticed?

It was about 1990 the change was made. The diamond board has a few advantages over the centerboard. With a pivot instead of a pin, it is easier to maintain and leak-free. The main benefit is structural in that the boat is beachable and trailerable without concern for the shoal keel.

It was also my understanding, possibly incorrect, that boats coming from the plant as refurbished boats have the diamond boards installed so it is possible that the date of original construction might not always reflect which board is installed. I have the original rudder style board that drops into the keel and rotates on a pin. The centerboard housing cap is removable allowing the centreboard to be lifted out. Very early boats did not have a removable cap so removing the centreboard was a much more involved process. My understanding, and I stand to be corrected, is that this installation and pivot pin arrangement is the same for the traditional centreboard and the diamond board. My view is that the diamond board is a refinement that would allow for slightly improved performance for those who have the knowledge and skill to take advantage of such things. While I would choose the diamond board in theory, I would definitely give much greater weight to selecting a boat that had been maintained in good condition and had the comfort features that I wanted. I would be very reluctant about beaching the R22 regardless of the centerboard used. I don't think the board makes any difference to how the boat is launched from or retrieved onto the trailer. In the final analysis, the for the authoritative answer about such matters you need to ask Stan. Graham Stewart Agile.

This is the first. Typically each summer I drive my family from Denver to the East Coast and leave them with family or by a beach somewhere while I fly home to work a week or two, then I go back and get them. This year I am going to take an extended vacation and stay gone about 4 weeks. Going to hit Virginia Beach, OBX (Stan's neighborhood), and Chincoteague. So I am planning to tow the Rhodes and have it available to get on the water for short day sails and a little exploring. I had always planned to remove my motor from the boat for long trips, however I had planned to just wrestle my oversized electric start Honda 9.9 x-long shaft (110 lbs) into the back of a pickup truck. In this case I will be towing with an SUV so that is not an option. I can't really just lift it into the cockpit. The question - does anyone have any neat tricks maybe using a halyard or topping lift/boom/mainsheet to lift a motor into the cockpit/cabin for travel? I will have a stabilizing hitch, towing with a pathfinder, so leaving it tightly strapped to the transom may be OK too.

When I recently towed my Rhodes 22 from Edenton home to Connecticut, I just left the motor on the transom, and I plan to continue this practice in the future. Stan?s crew tied it off to the aft railing and then lowered it some, so that some of the weight was supported by the railing, and some by the motor lift. I have an 8 HP Mercury. I don?t recall the exact weight, but it?s close to 100 lbs.

I usually strap my motor from between the rear cleat and a stern rail mount point. This lifts a little and keeps it from bouncing. Taking some of the vertical weight on the stern rail is a good idea that I will also incorporate.

I used to pull it off the transom for towing, but do not anymore. I try to support it some by hooking a strap under it and trying it to the stern eyes. A strap around the stern railing might be another option.

A few years back this question came up and I was surprised to see that a number of experienced Rodies were adamant that straps should not be used citing all sorts of horrible things that might happen. However, in the video that Peter posted a few weeks ago of him picking up his new boat at the factory I noticed that straps were being used. That settles the debate in my mind. I am going with the straps. Graham Stewart Agile.

If the bunks get wet, each bounce can reposition the hull. In a few cases, the winch line broke and the boat slid back quite a way on the bunks. While I doubt that the boat would fall off, it will reduce the tongue weight and make the rig unstable at higher speeds. Please use nice wide straps.

I tested and my battery switch is wired correctly, but its output supplies only Circuit Breaker panel loads. So you can switch so these loads are from either front or rear battery or combined. My batteries are different ages and brands and maybe different types so I try to avoid the combined position. I'd like to know whether Stan had a reason or someone just goofed. I'm going to check for that manual motor lift option. Even though I have a light electric motor (Torqeedo 1003) I'd hate to have it stuck in up position when I really need it (or can I just cut webbing in an emergency?).

I can?t recall a single instance of someone with the IMF system wishing they had the standard mast instead.

The brands that are most commonly mentioned are Air Head and Natures Head. These units are quite similar in design, and both are about 21? tall. According to the archives, Stan did manage to fit one of these into a Rhodes 22 at some point, but when I brought up the subject during our visit to GB last November, he pretty firmly discouraged me from going that route. Later I discovered a third brand in this market, the C-Head. The design of this unit is different in several respects, and a variety of models are offered, including a recently introduced ?shorty? model, which is only 15? tall. That was still too tall for the space available as the boat came to me, but I discovered that with some work the head floor could be lowered 3? to the same level as the main cabin floor.

When I joined a year ago my initiation was simple. I had to testify that I had opposing thumbs, therefore at least genus Homo, and declare my favorite rum. The boat fits my needs well. I've been out a dozen times this year, on water too cold with winds too high to single hand my Buccaneer 18. If you haven't sailed this 22 yet I suspect somebody down your way will volunteer a daysail. Otherwise road trip! I can launch or haul out in about 2 hours. Due to an aborted cruise, I had a little extra practice in April. I have the mast crane and can do it alone. It would take half a day to demo the boat, plus time on the water. Unless I was buying a cheap project I would want to inspect on the hard, test for leaks and watch the rigging process while looking for any missing parts. But I bought a factory refit, so I had no worries.

Stay away from boats that have significant damage to the centerboard trunk or shoal keel area. These projects have proven to be too much for some Rhodies. Float tests are desirable but not always necessary. Most older R22s that are on the hard have been neglected and leak at various points. The most common problems are from rain entering poorly bedded or maintained deck hardware including the ports. This may lead to various amounts of deck softness, delamination and loose chainplates. Such is the nature of a project boat. Inspection of the hull is best done on land, not a float test. Look for poorly repaired sections or damage from improper support or jacking.
