I hope that Rhodies will be able to read them for years to come. The google docs method works very well. The only problem is that we must rely on the link to google. If you cancel your account, delete the data or google suspends the account because you haven't accessed it for a while, the Rhodes list may not be able to view the content. This is why I try to have everyone post their material directly to the list. We have had issues where folks posted to the old nabble web interface and when nabble changed their system, the links to the materials failed. The same is true if posts referenced photo storage sites that are no longer functional. If the content is posted to the list, as long as the list survives, so will the content. I happily approve all non-spam posts, regardless of size. Our server is based on the Amazon Web Services model. We cannot outgrow their storage capacities.

My old setup as it came from previous owner was two pulleys and two ropes... nearly impossible to adjust under sail. My boat also has zero lifelines or rails to mount a traveler to. I mounted the Harken track on 1" OD fiberglass tubing for strength between backstays. For the backstays, since i had to replace them due to a mast folding incident last fall, with assistance from a machine shop, took two short 4" pieces 1.25" OD stainless tubing and had them drill 2 holes all the way through the tubing. In the holes for the back stays, i inserted 1/4" OD stainless tubing and flared the ends (like you would with an automotive brake line). The 1/8 ends were flared while inserted in the traveler rail sleeve, to provide a "low" friction channel for the backstays to run through. I then swaged the sleeves onto the backstay. [image: IMG_20170730_150748.jpg] If you look in the attached photo, behind my 6 year old daughter at the tiller, you can see my windward traveler rig. And yes, I take my 2 and 4 year old children out also... On Mon, Jul 31, 2017 at 3:35 PM Graham Stewart wrote: > Ric: > No, I didn't get the email.

I know that in the past Rhodies have met one another by hanging out with Stan and the boats and that there have also been informal gatherings away from the actual show. This year could we choose a time and location in advance for a gathering? Would it be possible to arrange something for Friday or Saturday evening? I live in the DC metro area and my boat is south of Annapolis. I'm willing to help organize this. Would anyone else be willing to help? I don't think I can do it alone. I suspect that the biggest challenge will be finding a venue/restaurant that could accommodate us. It might be possible to find an outdoor location like a public park but then there is the risk of unfriendly weather. Do you think this is a good idea? Do you think it is something you would attend? Are you willing to help me pull it together? I'd love to hear your thoughts. If no one wants to do this I'll let it slide. If there is a Rhodie near Annapolis who might know of a venue or location please contact me. Better still -- is there a Rhodie in the Annapolis area who could host at their home? :-) Thanks Marlan Green s/v Nautisaurus Holiday Hill Marina Mayo, MD Rhode River From tryc96 at ymail.com Thu Aug 3 11:51:54 2017 From: tryc96 at ymail.com (William Scarpitta) Date: Thu, 3 Aug 2017 15:51:54 +0000 (UTC) Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Boom Vang Mast Attachment In-Reply-To: References: <011526C8-B50D-4BB2-B08A-847B98FA874C@gmail.com> Message-ID: <984750542.5084273.1501775514996@mail.yahoo.com> Hi All, I rigged my boom vang using the usual bail on the boom, but instead of a bail on the mast which would prevent using the pop top, I used two pieces of heavy webbing (seat belt material would work too) with a grommet on one end and a D ring on the other. ?I attached the grommet ends to the mast base by using a slightly longer bolt through the tabernacle and just attach the end of the vang to both D rings when the vang is needed. ?When the vang is not needed, the two straps can be just pushed out of the way and the pop top works fine. ?

My only additional advice would be to double or triple the ends (i.e. fold the webbing over itself) before installing the grommet, as my first attempt failed when the grommet pulled through the webbing. Wider webbing would likely have helped. I was fortunate that our local sailing instructor has a proper grommet installation set up that was able to punch through the three layers of webbing, I'm not sure how easy this would be otherwise, but it worked well for me. --Jason -- View this message in context: http://rhodes-22.1065344.n5.nabble.com/Boom-Vang-Mast-Attachment-tp53542p53548.html Sent from the Rhodes 22 mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

There were several Rhodie gatherings at or near the show in the late 90s early 00s. We did meet in restaurants a couple of times (I remember one at Carroll Creek and one at Buddy's and I think even a small informal one at Cantlers but Stan didn't come to that one.) The problem with the restaurants during the show is that they are super crowded and Stan (and Elton back then) couldn't get off until the show had closed and they had wrapped things up for the night. The most successful one(s) we had were one or two that we had catered right at the boat after the show closed. They were catered by the BBQ place Red Hot & Blue (still in business) and several of us brought munchies, bottles of sodas, ice (and maybe ice tea ) for drinks - the wheeled cooler idea. I think the caterer supplied the tables and I don't remember who supplied paper goods and utensils. I remember that it seemed like a big undertaking but one of our members, Jan Eyres, was a meeting planner and I distinctly remember her saying "oh this will be easy." If I recall correctly, she made the arrangements with the caterer. Jan or Michael Meltzer (who just chimed in) made the arrangements with the show management to let the caterer in and maybe had the list of attendees. This would have to be done by someone acting on behalf of the vendor - General Boats. I believe we collected names so we had a list of everyone authorized to stay after the show closing. I collected the names of attendees and made nametags I found a nametag list with 20 names on it from 1998 (that might have been for a restaurant gathering) and one with 42 on it from 1999 - that was a big catered gathering at the Rhodes 22 display at the show. I'm still looking for photos but I may not have had many digital from back then. Not sure what our rain plans were but we may have had the 1999 equivalent of a couple of EZ-ups in reserve. I remember that we took over a couple of the vacated booths of other vendors and were very careful to leave all as we found it when we left. Good memories. Note that show management has changed and I have no idea of what current rules on such gatherings might be.

There were several Rhodie gatherings at or near the show in the late 90s early 00s. We did meet in restaurants a couple of times (I remember one at Carroll Creek and one at Buddy's and I think even a small informal one at Cantlers but Stan didn't come to that one.) The problem with the restaurants during the show is that they are super crowded and Stan (and Elton back then) couldn't get off until the show had closed and they had wrapped things up for the night. The most successful one(s) we had were one or two that we had catered right at the boat after the show closed. They were catered by the BBQ place Red Hot & Blue (still in business) and several of us brought munchies, bottles of sodas, ice (and maybe ice tea ) for drinks - the wheeled cooler idea. I think the caterer supplied the tables and I don't remember who supplied paper goods and utensils. I remember that it seemed like a big undertaking but one of our members, Jan Eyres, was a meeting planner and I distinctly remember her saying "oh this will be easy." If I recall correctly, she made the arrangements with the caterer. Jan or Michael Meltzer (who just chimed in) made the arrangements with the show management to let the caterer in and maybe had the list of attendees. This would have to be done by someone acting on behalf of the vendor - General Boats. I believe we collected names so we had a list of everyone authorized to stay after the show closing. I collected the names of attendees and made nametags I found a nametag list with 20 names on it from 1998 (that might have been for a restaurant gathering) and one with 42 on it from 1999 - that was a big catered gathering at the Rhodes 22 display at the show. I'm still looking for photos but I may not have had many digital from back then. Not sure what our rain plans were but we may have had the 1999 equivalent of a couple of EZ-ups in reserve. I remember that we took over a couple of the vacated booths of other vendors and were very careful to leave all as we found it when we left. Good memories. Note that show management has changed and I have no idea of what current rules on such gatherings might be.

I know that in the past Rhodies have met one another by hanging out with Stan and the boats and that there have also been informal gatherings away from the actual show. This year could we choose a time and location in advance for a gathering? Would it be possible to arrange something for Friday or Saturday evening? I live in the DC metro area and my boat is south of Annapolis. I'm willing to help organize this. Would anyone else be willing to help? I don't think I can do it alone. I suspect that the biggest challenge will be finding a venue/restaurant that could accommodate us. It might be possible to find an outdoor location like a public park but then there is the risk of unfriendly weather. Do you think this is a good idea? Do you think it is something you would attend? Are you willing to help me pull it together? I'd love to hear your thoughts. If no one wants to do this I'll let it slide. If there is a Rhodie near Annapolis who might know of a venue or location please contact me.

Anyway, if there is a loop in the information flow about the boat show, I wanna be in it.? I will kiss Stan; my lovely wife (a mere sixty-three today) will also kiss Stan, as long as Stan doesn't hit me after my kiss. I think Stan wants to kiss her more than me.? I will not dance with Stan (before getting drunk). I will probably be getting drunk. ???? Is there any thought given to lodging?? I want to stay in Havre de Grace.? However, that's over an hour from City Dock and has no quick and easy shuttle to downtown Annapolis (It's Greek, by the way.) so that's probably not practical. If we had a reasonably priced suite of rooms (in the Annapolis area) I could have a place to recover from "the vapors" after Stan's kiss... or the dance.? ???? I'll bet Stan's got something up his "sleeve" (that's a Middle English word "sleve" from after the year 950 & derived from Dutch "shlof") maybe not.? So, in English: Thanks.?

The "Dover Highway" Roll-on-Roll-off ship won't make it to Baltimore until the 9th and won't make it to Barcelona to drop off the Enosis until the 19th. It was supposed to be picked up and transferred to Livorno but they will have missed that boat so it would not get transferred until the 20th of September at the soonest. Arrgh. So, I've decided to pick up the boat in Barcelona. There are several options one is to cruise the Spanish coast and Balarics which are between 125 miles and 60 miles off shore. There appear to be a number of nice places on the Spanish coast between Barcelona and Valencia. We would spend 2 months sailing around the area and leave the boat at a marina on land. The 2nd option if the weather looks good for a few days after the Balerics passage (130 miles) we could make the jump to Southern Sardinia which is about a 300 mile open water crossing. That would be the longest that I have taken in the Rhodes. From there it is another 200 to Sicily. Once at Sicily we would sail along the south coast to Ragusa Marina where we would leave the boat for the winter. I've sailed most of this route before but in a much larger boat and it was challenging. Actual sailing days would be around 16 days. However we would take our time and explore Majorca and Sardinia and Sicily so the total time would be around 6 or 7 weeks. The last option would involve sailing north along the Spanish coast to France then along the French coast and then along the Italian coast to Naples. Marinas are very expensive and not a lot of places to anchor but the coast is very beautiful. Total sailing days would be around a month, averaging around 30 miles a day. I've sailed the Italian portion before. We would leave the boat in the island of Ischia in the bay of Naples. So if anyone has any other ideas or suggestions please let me know. I'll keep you posted.

I've sailed the Italian portion before. We would leave the boat in the island of Ischia in the bay of Naples. So if anyone has any other ideas or suggestions please let me know. I'll keep you posted.

Unless you just want to party, in which case don't hang it on me. I was a Sinatra fan and this is just the first of my retiring performances. I am playing it safe; the final curtain call won't happen til Chris Geankoplis can make it in person. All I said was I needed partnering. There were several solid responses but divorces stood in the way. One mistaken Rhodes owner called for a part and I asked if he wanted a job instead. Before we hung up, his girl friend, their 3 kids and mother had squeezed into our tiny 2 BR waterfront cottage and we finished our first inboard e-propulsion Rhodes now leaving Tuesday for Baltimore. Word got out and a couple in OR ordered the second e-propulsion Rhodes for delivery ASAP. Still have to figure out how to get up to the usual 4 more Rhodes we take to the show. Still desperately need partnering. Still no time for partying. Going to the show for one thing: To sell boats. I do remember the after hours catered affair at our boat at the show. We gave away a prize. It turned out the winner was a stranger. He did not own or never owned a Rhodes. He did thank us for the prize. I even recall the first line of my speech. "Never before have so many, who are mad at me, gathered together in one place at one time." Besides, emotionally, without Elton there, I would not be able to handle it. Maybe next year or the one or two thereafter. Sorry about this but I have still to think of all those poor folks all over this world, who have not yet lived the joys of sailing a Rhodes, like this couple in Australia are having sailing Australian waters. stan On 8/4/17 12:54 PM, Theodore Boender wrote: > I plan on going to the show.

After talking with other sailors who are familiar with the area it would be a push. We will take option one, and sail around the coast of Spain and the Balearic Islands. My wife is a great sailor and navigator and doesn't have any great objections for overnight sailing. In fact this adventure was at her suggestion. Of course I thought it was brilliant. I'll keep every one posted. Chris T Ch On Sat, Aug 5, 2017 at 12:28 AM, Michael D.

I do want to clarify that I just wanted to have a party to meet other Rhodies. I've met Stan. I don't need to hang out with him. :-) My mention of the this being the last year of General Boats at the show was simply because I thought in future years Rhodies might be less likely to attend if General Boats wasn't at the show. In past years I have hung around the General Boats display and met a few Rhodies, but only a handful. The boat show is huge and its hard to connect with people when there are so many things drawing our attention. I thought it would be nice to have a specified time and location where we could get together - even if it is just a bar in downtown Annapolis. However, I don't want to make Stan uncomfortable or burden him in anyway. So, I'll let this go. sincerely, Marlan On Sat, Aug 5, 2017 at 10:28 AM, Stan Spitzer wrote: > > Will you guys and dolls cut it out already.

I do want to clarify that I just wanted to have a party to meet other Rhodies. I've met Stan. I don't need to hang out with him. :-) My mention of the this being the last year of General Boats at the show was simply because I thought in future years Rhodies might be less likely to attend if General Boats wasn't at the show. In past years I have hung around the General Boats display and met a few Rhodies, but only a handful. The boat show is huge and its hard to connect with people when there are so many things drawing our attention. I thought it would be nice to have a specified time and location where we could get together - even if it is just a bar in downtown Annapolis. However, I don't want to make Stan uncomfortable or burden him in anyway. So, I'll let this go. sincerely, Marlan On Sat, Aug 5, 2017 at 10:28 AM, Stan Spitzer wrote: > > Will you guys and dolls cut it out already.

Sent him a $35 deposit on a future boat purchase. Drove to Edenton in '94 to buy a recycled '86. Those are the only two times I've met Stan in person. Talked (he might say argued) with him several times over the years since. Now own my second R22, a '98 I bought from a seller here in Texas. This is a great boat and I really appreciate all Stan has meant to us with his boat. The Admiral and I will be coming to the area for a tourist trip the end of September and are planning to spend a day at the boat show (was thinking Saturday but that could change if need be). We would love getting to meet as many of our "friends" on 'Da List as possible. I will be very sad that I'll not get to meet Rummy until I get to the other side. I'd be all in for an after show 'party' at the GB slot if Stan will allow it. I would even like to shake his hand again!!

If you are a start up or younger company wanting that location, you would have to buy General Boats. As you might expect, it is a very costly annual expense. I had to keep Elton from literally jumping out of the boat and chocking a Rhodie (most know) to death as he stood in front of the key display boat telling prospects where they could buy used Rhodes. A case of innocents abroad; we go to the show to sell boats. /*Partying at General Boats space after hours*/ is great. The view is awesome.

My primary sailing is single handed in small water with land affect, so a preventer scares me I think I'd test the fuse often so I've just been holding the boom down. My solo sailing is with the top down anyway unless the wind is light, and if the wind is light I sometimes take the Bucc 18 out since it planes quickly solo but overpowers fast. Your vang would work well for me. Is the strap a Kayak strap or something heavier? What did you mount to the boom? It looks like its just 4:1? Its not the half knot, though I had fun 'racing' a force 5 Saturday. Of course he was just playing with me, but I did let out a little more jib then prudent with a dozing girlfriend so I could pace him. Its not the Catalina 22 that goes out in heavy with a crew of three and shows the advantage of rail meat and his iron lifting keel (but somehow I keep pointing better). Its just the fact I hate bad sail shape.

Message-ID: <1502127406130-53586.post@n5.nabble.com> Weather permitting (as always) We plan to play on Erie launching from Port Huron September 14 (Thursday) and taking out on or before September 19. Some days will likely be on shore if the weather is dicey, the trip may start late, etc. You know the drill. We may marina hop East a couple days, check out the islands or hide in Sandusky bay. There isn't an alternate destination for weather yet, maybe return to Kentucky lake or try Lake Huron, but port Huron Erie would be less then half the trailer time unless the whole week is forecast to be ugly. Since a couple boats sail out of Cleveland and Toledo, if somebody wants to try to meet in the middle let us know and we'll head the appropriate direction.

Regardless, I'll meet Chris G's bid and add at least 10 (which would mean 60). It will help to have a date for the R22 brouhaha. Hope the beverages can be more adventurous than ice cubes & pop! Looking forward....

Anyway, if there is a loop in the information flow about the boat show, I wanna be in it.?

A few yrs back I measured carefully from my waterline mark to the deck top, then measured the standard mast a few times, although I think i added my antenna height into the calculation. When I go under the Mill Basin bridge it says 41 ft, (MLW) and I clear it by what seems like only about 4-5 feet. I wish I had a trailer now, but I cannot afford one and the storage alone would be prohibitive if she doesnt sell by winter. Safe sails in Europe, hope you have a wonderful time!

Getting a trailer is quite a challenge, but borrowing one might be an option. I know there lots of Rhodies in the NE and we all know how generous they are. So if having the ability to move the boat by the new owner is a deal maker you might be able to line something up. Looking forward to the Med experience.

I thought I would remind you that I do quite a lot of deliveries for Stan and Rhodies on my own trailer and can haul the boat, de-rig and launch at the other end as part of my hauling fee. Typically I charge $1.80 per loaded mile if using your trailer and $2.00 per loaded mile if using my trailer. I do have a minimum of $500 per tow if the distance is less than 250 miles.

Chris Geankoplis S/V Enosis Baltimore From peter at sunnybeeches.com Thu Aug 10 20:00:33 2017 From: peter at sunnybeeches.com (Peter Nyberg) Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2017 20:00:33 -0400 Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Lost My Headstay and Furler In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <82456E16-3326-482F-89F2-65242B93067E@sunnybeeches.com> I went down to Groton today to do a boat project and go for a short afternoon sail. Winds were light and I was just puttering along in Fisher?s Island Sound when there was a loud snap and the next thing I knew my 175 genoa was floating in the water along side my boat. The bottom was still attached at the bow, but the top was no longer attached to the top of the mast. This is a CDI furler, and an IMF mast. I managed to get the motor lowered and started, the main furled, and then the genoa stashed along the port gunwale. The very top of the roller reefing assembly was still dragging in the water behind the boat, but I was pretty sure that it would remain clear of the outboard prop. With all that done, I was able to motor calmly back to the marina and pick up my mooring. Before leaving the boat, I lashed the genoa more securely, disconnected it at the bow, and shifted the whole package forward a bit so that both ends were out of the water. What I didn?t think to do, for some reason, was to inspect the top of the furler assembly or the top of the mast (using binoculars) to get a better sense of what had failed and what might be required to put things right. I have disconnected the furler assembly from the mast several times in the past, but now can?t really recall what the connection looked like. In looking at some things I found online, it would seem that I should expect to see some bits of rigging hardware (part of the actual forestay) extending above the plastic top cap of the CDI assembly. I?m pretty sure that at the moment there is nothing that extends beyond the top cap, which if true would suggest that the forestay itself has failed. Of course the good news in all of this is that the mast has remained more or less vertical through the entire process. I won?t be able to pull the boat out of the water, drop the mast, and inspect things more closely until Monday. In the mean time, I?m left to wonder what hoops I?ll need to jump through to get my boat ready to sail again. Any insights or advice from the list would be greatly appreciated. And, as always, a picture is worth 1000 words.

I decided to go with the traveller attached to the stern pulpit. There were a number of reasons for this including the fact that by placing it there access to the motor was less impeded. I had my old traveller track that I wanted to use and so I attached it to a 5' piece of stainless steel tubing by drilling and tapping holes for the 14 bolts. To get the angle right for the mainsheet I wanted the bar to be able to rotate. I ended up using several pieces of off the shelf rail brackets that are shown in the close up photo of the traveller end. I used a hinged rail clamp that comes with a spring-loaded fast pin that holds the pulpit anchor which in turn holds the traveller bar. I adjusted the angle by rotating the bar and then clamped it in place with the pulpit anchor bolts. The fast pins allow me to remove the traveller very quickly and easily. I have on order a traveller car that fits my track and includes two cam cleats on it. That way I have no need for blocks and cam cleats at the ends of the traveller. After years of restoration work I have actually sailed the boat yesterday and today in 15 knot winds and it appears that the traveller works quite well for me. It is an amazing sensation to actually be on the water again! Speaking of motor access, I made a shifter extension for the motor which is shown in the picture of the full traveller. It consists of grey plastic conduit (1" inside diameter) with a hinge that I made from 1" dowel. The short end slips over the shift lever on the motor. Because it is not attached otherwise it can be removed instantly just by lifting it up and it is also able to rotate in place so it does not get in the way when I use the motor to steer tight turns. It is kind of crude but works. I think I will redo the hinge to make it a bit beefier and also include a knob at the join that will allow me to change the tension.

The stern rail is bolted on to the boat although I intend to beef that up next spring as the bolts are short and the backing washers are only small washers. I will also need to keep an eye on the set screws that hold the rail together. In the final analysis I have no idea whether the rail is sufficiently strong for the traveller.

I assumed that it was centered on the mast step pad but that turned out to be incorrect. In that location the pop top bracket would not engage with the slot in the mast. So I moved the bracket back and now my pop top does not seat properly on the cabin top. If anyone can tell me the exact location of the bracket on the step pad I would be most grateful. I have the original non-furling mast. A picture would be great. Thanks, Graham Stewart Agile.

On my '79 it is just a professionally crimped fitting on the cable, and a 1/4" pin attaching the forestay to the masthead. Hearing your story though makes me want to replace my 1/4" pin in the masthead as it was fairly bent... 10-15 degree angle, though given the width of the pin, the bend may be intentional to keep it from sliding side to side.

Sure beats standing there and giving the rail a good shake. Actually, 450 lbs of force seems like a lot to me.

Its not that heavy, I?ve opened the gasketed top cap, removed the CB and repaired the cap, which was cracked due to a grounding. I refurbished the trunk and replaced the hose parts which occupy the slots, installed to prevent the board from sliding up in its tracks and hitting the cap - which is apparently what happened. Anyway - the board is not that heavy and although I replaced the line and blocks, I questioned myself at the time, that all that purchase adds more friction than the weight it presumably helps to lift. It sounds like the newer diamond board does not use any blocks and is a direct path from the back of the board with no turning blocks.

I removed the wood shroud after my birdsnest plug when the bilge was filling with rainwater. I saw the tube fastened by clamp behind the wood shroud inside the cabin. This appears to be above waterline unlike the removable cap, and in my case must leak when the tube is full of rainwater wetting the step and draining into the bilge. I could not feel any cracks, but it leaks when the cockpit seats collect water. My bilge did not fill with the last 3" downpour, so I am hopeful the issue was a failure of the hose to seal against pressure and a floating grass plug at the top of the well that has finally rotted away. Snaking did not help. Unlikely scenario, but less bad than a crack. I'll test with a bucket and and if needed tear it apart before my Lake Erie trip next month, hence the questions. The pennant runs through the companionway drain tube. The throat is molded into the centerboard housing aft of the cap and elevated above the cap and waterline. The centerboard has top hangers. The cap gasket, hangers and pennant are accessible when the boat is on the hard if the shroud, carpet, bench top, step / drawer assembly, and sole center strip of plywood are removed. The tube and clamp are sort of accessible just by removing the wood shroud at the companionway and the tube is above waterline so this could be taken apart with difficulty while the boat is in the water.

You could laminate a S/S tube like there is in the aft section of the lid as a tuning point but might as well keep the blocks. I don't have the diamond board so I cant advise on that. Quite frankly the traditional CB works fine for me and is useful as a shallow water warning when it scrapes on the bottom.

I used a mask and fins to replace the pennant. ?It took several attempts, but I placed a knot on the pennant when the board was correctly lowered. ?The top of the board is wider and helps fill the gap in the trunk when it is lowered to the correct position.

I removed the wood shroud after my birdsnest plug when the bilge was filling with rainwater.? I saw the tube fastened by clamp behind the wood shroud inside the cabin.? This appears to be above waterline unlike the removable cap, and in my case must leak when the tube is full of rainwater wetting the step and draining into the bilge.? I could not feel any cracks, but it leaks when the cockpit seats collect water.? ? My bilge did not fill with the last 3" downpour, so I am hopeful the issue was a failure of the hose to seal against pressure and a floating grass plug at the top of the well that has finally rotted away.? Snaking did not help.? Unlikely scenario, but less bad than a crack.? I'll test with a bucket and and if needed tear it apart before my Lake Erie trip next month, hence the questions.? The pennant runs through the companionway drain tube.? The throat is molded into the centerboard housing aft of the cap and elevated above the cap and waterline.? The centerboard has top hangers.? The cap gasket, hangers and pennant are accessible when the boat is on the hard if the shroud, carpet, bench top, step / drawer assembly,? and sole center strip of plywood are removed.? The tube and clamp are sort of accessible just by removing the wood shroud at the companionway and the tube is above waterline so this could be taken apart with difficulty while the boat is in the water.?

I hope you guys have a lot of fun. Outboards suck, my next one will be electric. Madison is nice in the summer, but surviving the Texas heat is an epic feat of seamanship. I love reports of people using their boat, even if I don't make it to half the places. Any pictures? Was the foiler that was killed by the DNR boat on your Wisconsin lake? I spent years mostly singlehanding a 2 man Buccaneer 18 (The Rod Macalpine-Downie and Dick Gibbs design, not the heavy slow bathtub with the same name). That boat has been described as "Fast boat, initially very tender but firms up just before it capsizes" so I was kind of jumpy when I came to the Rhodes-22. It took me a while not to ease the sheet every time the rubrail got wet and realize she just doesn't care if you wash the decks on occasion. I personally limit the main to only one '2' visible and start with half a jib when the wind is in the 20's or gusting a lot. I also reef the main quickly if the weather might be building, since it seems much harder to reef in a heavy wind. I'll play with the jib but not trust more main until I'm really sure. The vertical batten mainsail is a bit fuller, so a tad more caution helps vs the batten-less sail that lacks a roach. How do you scull the Rhodes?

I hauled the boat, packed it for travel, and brought it home. Once home, I disassembled the furler, and took a look at what was left of forestay attachment hardware at the top of the mast. As I suspected, the failure occurred near the top of the mast. The forestay wire itself was completely intact. The bit of hardware attached to the upper end of the ware failed. At the point of failure, it looks like there may be the start of a threaded portion. The piece still attached at the top of the mast looks like it?s shaped to accept a cylindrical (sp ?) piece of hardware. I?m at a loss to recall the bits of gear that allowed this connection to be made. I?ll try to attach a picture of the pieces I found. I hope to visit a rigger in the next day or two in the hopes that a professional will be able to figure this out.

The board is heavier when in a lift than when in the water but even so it was a heavy lift - certainly more than my wife could lift or I would care to lift. My board weighs 80 pounds and most of that weight appears to be at the end where you would expect it to be. The attachment point for the line is about 1/3 of the way along the back edge. I figure that using that point of attachment would double the force needed to lift the board. That makes the board very heavy if you only use the one block and use the existing attachment point. The alternative might be to move the attachment point to the end of the board but that would mean it was dragging down low and aside from the friction and turbulence that would create, it would be very vulnerable to getting caught in weeds. Even then you are lifting about 35 pounds. I decided to stick with the original design. Graham Stewart Agile.

Most likely you would need to get a new forestay run up through the CDI furler with a new T-Bolt swaged fitting. Something like this... I just redid my backstays, and I used swageless Hayn Hi-Mod Compression Eye , but this was done at the chainplate, so repair would be much simpler in case of failure. I'd recommend a professional replacing the forestay as swaging presses are typically outside normal price ranges, but if your feeling adventurous.... You could replace your forestay yourself with replacement 1x19 T316 1/8" stainless cable and Hayn Hi-Mod Compression fittings on both ends. Since you have the entire cable, measuring for length would be trivial, and replacing it would be ~$150 between cable, fittings, and shipping, and about an hours worth of work. http://www.defender.com/product.jsp?name=hayn-toggle-jaw&path=-1|118|2358509|2358515&id=78887 https://theriggingco.com/2016/11/14/mechanical-or-swage/ https://www.amazon.com/ArkHardware-Stainless-Steel-Commercial-Marine/dp/B015HMRV70/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1502755210&sr=1-1-fkmr0&keywords=1x19%2B1%2F8%2BT316&th=1 http://hayn.com/marine/rigging/himod.html On Mon, Aug 14, 2017 at 7:12 PM wrote: > I was finally able to return to Groton with my trailer today.

Did get a quote to haul, paint, store for 9 months and launch here in Livorno and it was around $2000. Not so cheap. Some real horror stories from some Italian sailors of the cost of the upscale marinas. Having a small boat is no advantage as they charge for the slip a minimum of 10m. $200 to $500 a night! Jeez. Definitely going to either anchor off or cuddle up with the fishing boats if I can talk my way in. Should be more boat talk coming up around the 25th.

I can tell you that the system I have is too difficult for my wife to lift. In fact its not so easy for me either. I know that its running free and clear, but its still a heavy lift, especially the last 6 inches. The diamond Board is most likely a solution to that issue; another upgrade that General Boats might offer someday. I agree that a long line at the end of the CB is not a good solution. If the CB cap was not such a big deal to remove and replace, I would experiment, but for now, as with other minor annoyances, I sail the boat as much as possible and enjoy it immensely. ric sv Dadventure > On Aug 14, 2017, at 7:13 PM, Graham Stewart wrote: > > It wasn't high science but I experimented with not using the blocks when my boat was in it's lift. The board is heavier when in a lift than when in the water but even so it was a heavy lift - certainly more than my wife could lift or I would care to lift. My board weighs 80 pounds and most of that weight appears to be at the end where you would expect it to be. The attachment point for the line is about 1/3 of the way along the back edge. I figure that using that point of attachment would double the force needed to lift the board.

I hauled the boat, packed it for travel, and brought it home. Once home, I disassembled the furler, and took a look at what was left of forestay attachment hardware at the top of the mast. As I suspected, the failure occurred near the top of the mast. The forestay wire itself was completely intact. The bit of hardware attached to the upper end of the ware failed. At the point of failure, it looks like there may be the start of a threaded portion. The piece still attached at the top of the mast looks like it?s shaped to accept a cylindrical (sp ?) piece of hardware. I?m at a loss to recall the bits of gear that allowed this connection to be made. I?ll try to attach a picture of the pieces I found. I hope to visit a rigger in the next day or two in the hopes that a professional will be able to figure this out.

I keep the boat on a shallow mooring. At extreme low tide, the keel rests on the bottom and I often back to boat up to the beach so my wife can get on without wading through that 'icky seaweed?. Once in awhile, a small stone will jamb between the trunk and the CB, so I have to go under the boat and free it. When I dislodge the stone, the board swings down to it fully deployed position without any problem - unless I?m in the way. I replaced the line with Dyneema, which may be to stiff for those little blocks, or there may be something else caught in the blocks. I?ll let you know next week Ric sv Dadventure > On Aug 16, 2017, at 12:59 PM, Graham Stewart wrote: > > Ric: > Might the centerboard be rubbing against the housing?

The board is heavier when in a lift than when in the water but even so it was a heavy lift - certainly more than my wife could lift or I would care to lift. My board weighs 80 pounds and most of that weight appears to be at the end where you would expect it to be. The attachment point for the line is about 1/3 of the way along the back edge. I figure that using that point of attachment would double the force needed to lift the board. That makes the board very heavy if you only use the one block and use the existing attachment point. >>> >>> The alternative might be to move the attachment point to the end of the board but that would mean it was dragging down low and aside from the friction and turbulence that would create, it would be very vulnerable to getting caught in weeds.

That's why I kept the Bucc (that and the fact its worth more if I take a chainsaw to it and sell the organs). If I want to go fast and look at beautiful sail shape, I still can. The Rhodes-22 will sort of plane under perfect conditions though. It points well if you fly a full jib or sheet it inboard when reefed. The LWL does provides a hull speed better then most 22's. So its performance is still respectable for a 'mini furniture boat'. If I want to go sailing after work I don't care how fast I go since I'm the only sailboat in view. I am alone, tired, and don't want to spend half my time rolling sails afterword. The Rhodes 22 with in mast furling will be under sail 10 minutes after I turn off the car. If you are worried about sailshape you surely aren't flaking your precious sail into lazy jacks and ruining it with folds, so you have to drop and roll your sails every time. If I want to spend a few hours without concern of swimming and I'm dumping wind in the gusts anyway, the lack of a roach and pocket is an advantage. The traveler system and responsive handling make short tacking easy for one person. Half the boats I see are using only one sail, and they aren't catboats. They are just sacrificing performance and handling in order to approximate the convenience of a Rhodes 22. The Rhodes-22 is very good at what it does, but it can't do everything. I'm sure if I was into long distance cruising or racing with a crew the IMF would be a negative. For convenient single handed slip launched daysailing and especially after work sails it cannot be beat. For flexible sailplan in variable winds without a cabin full of sailbags, it has advantage. In my case that is 95% of my hours under sail. For the other 5%, the pocket cruiser interior and comfortable cockpit for several outweigh the disadvantage of sail shape.

I looked into custom rigging web pages at West Marine and Defender, and even Dwyer. Nothing they showed seemed to really line up with the pieces I had. Somehow I had a gut feeling that I?d be better off dealing with an independent rigging shop. After a quick internet search I happened on Sound Rigging Services in Essex, CT (https://www.soundrigging.com), and I decided to give them a try. For those unfamiliar with the geography of southern New England, ?Sound? is a reference to Long Island Sound, the body of water between Connecticut and Long Island, NY. I called ahead, which turned out to be a good idea as I was told that at this time of year, people are mostly working on the road. However, I was able to make an appointment with Chuck, the owner, for the following morning. I arrived, showed Chuck what I had, and we went out to the work area. Chuck has a lot of inventory, and he spent a lot of time looking through bins trying to find the right bits of hardware to match what had been at the top of the mast. The major issue was that the U shaped piece that holds the barrel of the T bolt is longer than is common for contemporary fittings. Without having the mast, he couldn?t be sure that a shorter U shaped piece would work. In the end, he resorted to scrounging through cardboard boxes of oddball pieces to find what he need to allow me to continue to use the original U shaped piece that we knew would work. Once I got back to the boat and was able able to take a closer look at the connection of the forestay to the top of the mast, I?m pretty sure that a somewhat shorter U shaped piece would work, but I couldn?t say exactly how short. Anyway, I enjoyed the time I spent hanging around in the shop with Chuck. He told some interesting stories while he was doing this and that. I found the final bill to be quite reasonable. Having a new forestay, I was left with the task of having to reassemble the CDI furling apparatus. I was a bit nervous about this in part because it?s never been clear to me how it really works. The mystery was, what keeps the parts that spin attached to the piece at the bottom that doesn?t spin. While putting everything back together it finally occurred to me that it?s just gravity. Hopefully, that will continue to work as it has. As I tend to do with my boat projects, I?ve made a YouTube video about this little adventure for anyone interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbKIYYFU73s Thanks to all who provided insight into my issues with the forestay.

I wanted to thank you for your offer. If someone on da list really wants my boat and you are available, maybe it could work out. Im sailing Miracles as much as I can and still listing her around the NYC area. Unfortunately moving her up the Hudson with me will not be cost effective. I looked into some of the marinas near Troy NY and they are not sailboat friendly , ie: fixed bridges, some yards demand u have a trailer. Thanks again for you offer. I realize I would have to pay you for the service but its a very nice gesture.

Bring the rudder up to about parallel to the boat and move it back and forth with the tiller. Helps to also have an oar with you if you have crew. The oar helps with direction and adds to forward motion. We had a crappy engine at one point and the winds were not favorable for us to sail to our slip, so the rudder and oar did the trick on more than one occasion.

Before this became available we installed a Minnkota long shaft , 101 lb thrust trolling motor with three 12V? 40 Amp-hr Lithium ion batteries.? Either solution gives you a motor that always starts, & runs well at low to moderate speeds.? When we still had the 175 genny, we motor sailled with the electric helping to tack over the large sail. The Minn Kota Riptide T/112 (112 Lbs. Thrust, 52" Shaft sells for $900 on the MinnKota site. The long shaft torqeedo Travel 1003 is about the same size motor with about the same sized battery that we have ( 530 W-hr.) for about the same price when you add in the cost of the batteries and chargers. The only question that I have is the shaft lengths. Minn Kota claims 53" while Torqeedo claims 75 cm which is about 30", but maybe they are measured from different points? ?Joseph A.

The Rhodes list archives are on the Rhodes Owners site with a link from here: http://rhodes22.org/mailman/listinfo/rhodes22-list The actual archive list lives here: http://rhodes22.org/pipermail/rhodes22-list/ You can search the archives using Google by entering your search terms and specifying the site - for example: site:rhodes22.org "wiring diagram" This isn't as reliable as it used to be. I don't know if it's a change in Google's search algorithm or a change in our storage (which has happened several times as different people have become caretaker of the email list and website - thank you to Mike and John, our most recent caretakers.) Nabble is a service that makes a web presentation of email lists. Someone added the R22 list to it years ago so there is a good archive there as well. You can use the search box on the Nabble page (http://rhodes-22.1065344.n5.nabble.com/) ?to search the archives as well and at this point, it seems to work better than the Google search but they will pull different results at times. Hope this helps.

I?ll check them out. It?s great that you remain on the list despite having sold your Rhodes. It certainly helps to have some institutional memory. And thanks to those who have responded thus far to my inquiry about electric motors. I?m hoping to find some solution that doesn?t break the bank, and that also works with the clever motor hoist that Stan designed for the Rhodes.

It was pricey but thus far it's worked great, at least in relatively good conditions. I can't comment on the pod drive or the less powerful options, though. General Boats did the purchasing and installation. Thanks to Chris Cowie, I imagine, they have a significant price discount, particularly on the batteries, and the outboard. The set up is very convenient; the charging of the batteries, the remote control, etc. The only let down was the tiller-motor linkage system, which can't be used - at least the design I had in place for my Yamaha. This owes to the fact that the vertical axis of rotation of the Torqueedo is much closer to the stern than that of normal outboards. So while one can physically link tiller and motor, that linkage severely limits the range of motion of the tiller. In summary, one needs to to lock the motor in the straight position. Not really a 'solution', but not an critical problem either. Best regards Jos?

Under EPA's proposal for next year, the availability of ethanol free and E10 gasoline continues to be in jeopardy. Meanwhile, the availability of E15 will continue to grow, jeopardizing boats and boat engines across the country. Boaters need to be able to fill their boat with the fuel of their choice.

I use two of the largest 'deep cell' batteries that Wal-Mart sells as my power source and once had to motor about 5 miles directly against a 10-15 knot wind, we had stayed at the lake side bar a little too late and the night wind had shifted from the north to the west.? With the wind along side or behind, the trolling motor can push that 2,900 lbs boat at about 4 knots.? Directly into the wind, we were struggling to get 2 knots.? It was a very long trip back to the marina for the night, but 2.5 hours of motoring and the batteries got us home.? The trolling motor that I use is just a mid-sized Minkota available at Wal-Mart as well. Lots of people look at me weird when they see my boat with the troll motor take off from the dock, but they quickly change their mind about how much motor they actually need on their boat when they see my boat quietly and quickly glide out of the marina.? The only issue I have with my trolling motor is that I purchased one with a really long shaft.? If I had it to do over again, I would have gotten the one with the shorter shaft because the longer shaft is more flexible and under full thrust, the bottom pushes itself forward to interfere with the rudder.? The long shaft also makes it a bit harder to pull it up high enough out of the water when under sail. The Rhodes with it's off-set motor mount on the transom shouldn't have any of the problems I have with the rudder, but the short shaft trolling motor would still be all that you need because of how the mount lifts and lowers the motor.

The board is heavier when in a lift than when in the water but even so it was a heavy lift - certainly more than my wife could lift or I would care to lift. My board weighs 80 pounds and most of that weight appears to be at the end where you would expect it to be. The attachment point for the line is about 1/3 of the way along the back edge. I figure that using that point of attachment would double the force needed to lift the board.
