[Rhodes22-list] IMF safety modification

[Shawn Boles]

Hi:
Lift the aft end of the boom slightly with the topping lift before
unfurling or furling the main. This will let the main move w/o binding.
Also, have the boom slightly to starboard when furling (per Stan's advice).
Cheers,
Shawn

This looks like exactly what I need.  I'm new to Rhodes 22s so I have a lot
to learn.  In going out 3 times since buying it I have jammed the IMF twice.
Your solution looks like it will solve the problem.  In my case I think it
was caused by the IMF line being pulled down as the main was unfurled and
furled.

Do you have the part numbers for the hardware?

Also the size and length of lines? I bought a 1983 and it looks like
some/many of the lines have been replaced by alternate sizes.
