[Rhodes22-list] Unsure of plastic part above cabin

[Allyn Baskerville]

I did notice cracks around both holes. I agree with Peter that the mast crutch wasn't used. When I purchased the boat, the mast was tied to the stern and bow rails. I've seen pictures with the mast propped up with the mast crutch during transportation, but I'm not sure if this is the norm. 

The person who had this Rhodes before me donated it to a ministry, and I purchased it through the ministry. They are going to ask the original owner if he has the gin pole and winch. I presume these aren't too hard to obtain?

Not bad advice.  While the block should not be subject to pull out forces, one never knows. - rob

Allyn,

To moderate damage, this block should be tear-out mounted like the mast step.  You should remount the block using 2" machine screws and 3M 4200 adhesive.

Regards,
