It’s great to know all these Canadians appreciating the Rhodes.

I continue to source the neoprene. I’m asking my US friend if she will receive and redirect the neoprene up north. I thought we have free trade.

Thanks for identifying yourself. For the longest time I thought I was the only one in Canada and for some reason I am comforted to know that there are others - all in Ontario. If there are any other Canadians lurking out there, please drop us a note.

Hi Graham, Patrick, Phil, et al: FYI I am a forth Rhodie in Canada and
located in Oshawa. I've been quietly monitoring "the list" since last fall
and really appreciate the advice and maintenance tips from the more
experienced Rhodies out there. Keep up the good work.
Cheers to all.

Glad to hear that there is another Rhodie in Canada. I thought Phil
Gautier and I were the only ones.

I replaced my gasket last year but was unable to find the proper neoprene.
I finally got some neoprene from a neighbor but it wasn't smooth surfaced
so it leaked no matter how many bolts I added. I finally stopped the leaks
by using butyl tape - not an ideal solution, but it worked well. Butyl is
an excellent sealant but has very low adhesive qualities so it should be
easy to remove in the future should that be necessary. The tape is about
3/4" wide but I only used about half of that on both sides of the gasket as
I didn't want to have it squeeze into the centerboard slot. I would not use
the butyl that comes in a tube. In fact only use the butyl if you can't get
the proper neoprene.

Thx, Patrick

Patrick,

When I did my centerboard trunk maintenance four years ago I used
neoprene sheet I bought off of Amazon. It seems to have worked well.

Dear Rhodies,

It is time to repair the center board. I reached out to Stan for a
piece of
the rubber but he is super busy right now.

I seems to recall some Rhodies may have extra rubber left over from
their
repair. I am hoping I can buy a stripe off you, if you are willing to
sell.
