Yesterday I watched  rare event. 
I saw another Rhodes 22 sailing from Shinnecock Inlet, westbound toward the Ponquogue Bridge in Hampotn Bays.
I’m not the only Rhodes in Shinnnecock Bay, I’m the only sailboat, so not many sails go by without my notice. 
Can anyone out there claim any knowledge of the phantom Rhodes?

(I know it may be obvious once I have the sail out, but i’m not to that point yet).  any instructions/pointers/hints/etc, is much appreciated. along with tips for reinstalling the IMF assembly.

With that in mind, any info on headsail removal and CDI installation would also be appreciated.  If you’re coming to annapolis for the boat show, we can discuss both procedures,
