I went straight through the Barbados loft.  A little extra paperwork since you have to do import paperwork.  They already have the dimensions for the sails.  You can email Jo, the sales manager.  You might want to wait on ordering them until after the sailing season has past.  They will give you a discount during the winter months.

Anyone know if there is a specific gelcoat to repair the blue hull Rhodes?  I've got some fiberglass repairs to do on my boat and I'd like to see if I can match the gelcoat color.

Currently none of the rubber sheeting on Amazon or McMaster-Carr are the right size for the gasket.  Has anyone found another option?  Stan is incommunicado recently.

I'm sure there's a more efficient option, but I went onto Ebay for mine and
ordered a roll of 3/16" neoprene. The thickness was based on an old post by
Stan on the webpage; I think Roger provided the durometer rating. 40A? Mine
came from a boat guy in Fort Lauderdale. My leftovers got used on other
odds and ends. I looked just now and a roll 12" x 36" was about $40 with
free shipping. Get out a nice sharp blade and a sunny day. I have an older
CB but was able to cut out the interior as needed to support the lift
mechanism.

Yes, I believe I'm looking for gelcoat.  I've got a hole in my transom I'm working on patching.  I've got most of the fiberglass work done but figured I'd need gelcoat on top of that.

Message-ID: <070801d875f9$ccd09d80$6671d880$@gmail.com>

Mike,

I can't put my "fingers" on it right now. But here are my notes:

 

I obtained a replacement gasket through Chris Cowie, ccowieatvoilieryachts.com , a Rhodie at Voilier Yachts in White Plains, MD . If you want to buy your own gasket, purchase neoprene.) I took my CB cap to them so they could get the bolt holes properly aligned in the right pattern. Once I had the new gasket, re-assembly of the gasket and CB Cover was the reverse.

 

I replaced all of the hardware with ?? x 1-1/4? 316 SS Machine bolts, fender washers and lock nuts purchased from McMaster-Carr on line. You may be able to get them for less at Fastenall. The old gasket only had the machine screws and nuts. Stan told me that there should be fender washers on top and bottom. (First photo shows CB Cap before I removed it showing rust around the hex screw heads.  The second photo shows the ?new? cap with new hardware incl. fender washers)

           

 

I tightened the hex screws barely snug at first and then gradually tightening, side to side, working from front to rear or vice versa and finally snugging them down in the same sequence, taking care not to over tighten. (Do not tighten by alternating front to rear or there is a chance of a ?bubble? occurring in the gasket.)  Once you launch for the first time, check for leaks and torque the bolts as necessary, but always allow for future tightening.  When I first launched, there was leakage and I snugged the screws once again and the dripping ceased. I?m in my third season (2021) and it hasn?t leaked a drop!

 

I will probably pull up my cabin sole and re-snug them soon.

 

I hope this helps.

By the way, when it comes to replacing the cap and gasket, Stan has very specific instructions. There are 50+ 316 SS Machine screws and fender washers  and backing nuts securing the rubber gasket. It does not require sealant. If properly fastened and the machine screws carefully tightened, it will remain water tight. Do not over tighten! If you cannot find Stan's instructions, let me know and I will post them.

Joe,

This is very helpful.  In my boat there were no washers on the underside of the cap, just on the top.  I'll add bottom washers when I reassemble.  
A few of the hex heads broke off during disassembly and there was evidence of corrosion, so I ordered all new 316 stainless hardware from McMaster-Carr (1 day delivery!).  I tried emailing Chris Cowie but his email bounced back.

My gasket seems to be in reasonable condition, but I planned on replacing it anyway.  However, I still haven't located neoprene sheet in the right size.  The gasket is 7.25" x 54.25" and is 3/16" thick.  I imagine that 1/4" neoprene would also work well and might be more forgiving if there are irregularities in the surfaces.  I am looking for soft 40A Duro, which is less common than the harder 60A.

If anyone has recently been able to get the gasket material, please let me know.  I've also reached out to Stan and Charles but haven't heard back yet.

Thanks for your help.

Subject: Re: [Rhodes22-list] CB Gasket replacement and Tightening

Mike,

I can't put my "fingers" on it right now. But here are my notes:

 

I obtained a replacement gasket through Chris Cowie, ccowieatvoilieryachts.com , a Rhodie at Voilier Yachts in White Plains, MD . If you want to buy your own gasket, purchase neoprene.) I took my CB cap to them so they could get the bolt holes properly aligned in the right pattern. Once I had the new gasket, re-assembly of the gasket and CB Cover was the reverse.

 

I replaced all of the hardware with ?? x 1-1/4? 316 SS Machine bolts, fender washers and lock nuts purchased from McMaster-Carr on line. You may be able to get them for less at Fastenall. The old gasket only had the machine screws and nuts. Stan told me that there should be fender washers on top and bottom. (First photo shows CB Cap before I removed it showing rust around the hex screw heads.  The second photo shows the ?new? cap with new hardware incl. fender washers)

           

 

I tightened the hex screws barely snug at first and then gradually tightening, side to side, working from front to rear or vice versa and finally snugging them down in the same sequence, taking care not to over tighten. (Do not tighten by alternating front to rear or there is a chance of a ?bubble? occurring in the gasket.)  Once you launch for the first time, check for leaks and torque the bolts as necessary, but always allow for future tightening.  When I first launched, there was leakage and I snugged the screws once again and the dripping ceased. I?m in my third season (2021) and it hasn?t leaked a drop!

 

I will probably pull up my cabin sole and re-snug them soon.

 

I hope this helps.

Mike,

My existing gasket is 7.25 x 54.25.  I didn't examine the possibility of using narrower material--is that what you used?

I'm sure there's a more efficient option, but I went onto Ebay for mine and
ordered a roll of 3/16" neoprene. The thickness was based on an old post by
Stan on the webpage; I think Roger provided the durometer rating. 40A? Mine
came from a boat guy in Fort Lauderdale. My leftovers got used on other
odds and ends. I looked just now and a roll 12" x 36" was about $40 with
free shipping. Get out a nice sharp blade and a sunny day. I have an older
CB but was able to cut out the interior as needed to support the lift
mechanism.

I'll check if I have any other contact info for Chris. He's a Rhodie and is on The List from time to time.

Joe,

This is very helpful.  In my boat there were no washers on the underside of the cap, just on the top.  I'll add bottom washers when I reassemble.  
A few of the hex heads broke off during disassembly and there was evidence of corrosion, so I ordered all new 316 stainless hardware from McMaster-Carr (1 day delivery!).  I tried emailing Chris Cowie but his email bounced back.

My gasket seems to be in reasonable condition, but I planned on replacing it anyway.  However, I still haven't located neoprene sheet in the right size.  The gasket is 7.25" x 54.25" and is 3/16" thick.  I imagine that 1/4" neoprene would also work well and might be more forgiving if there are irregularities in the surfaces.  I am looking for soft 40A Duro, which is less common than the harder 60A.

If anyone has recently been able to get the gasket material, please let me know.  I've also reached out to Stan and Charles but haven't heard back yet.

Thanks for your help.

Mike,

I can't put my "fingers" on it right now. But here are my notes:

 

I obtained a replacement gasket through Chris Cowie, ccowieatvoilieryachts.com , a Rhodie at Voilier Yachts in White Plains, MD . If you want to buy your own gasket, purchase neoprene.) I took my CB cap to them so they could get the bolt holes properly aligned in the right pattern. Once I had the new gasket, re-assembly of the gasket and CB Cover was the reverse.

 

I replaced all of the hardware with ?? x 1-1/4? 316 SS Machine bolts, fender washers and lock nuts purchased from McMaster-Carr on line. You may be able to get them for less at Fastenall. The old gasket only had the machine screws and nuts. Stan told me that there should be fender washers on top and bottom. (First photo shows CB Cap before I removed it showing rust around the hex screw heads.  The second photo shows the ?new? cap with new hardware incl. fender washers)

           

 

I tightened the hex screws barely snug at first and then gradually tightening, side to side, working from front to rear or vice versa and finally snugging them down in the same sequence, taking care not to over tighten. (Do not tighten by alternating front to rear or there is a chance of a ?bubble? occurring in the gasket.)  Once you launch for the first time, check for leaks and torque the bolts as necessary, but always allow for future tightening.  When I first launched, there was leakage and I snugged the screws once again and the dripping ceased. I?m in my third season (2021) and it hasn?t leaked a drop!

 

I will probably pull up my cabin sole and re-snug them soon.

 

I hope this helps.

By the way, when it comes to replacing the cap and gasket, Stan has very specific instructions. There are 50+ 316 SS Machine screws and fender washers  and backing nuts securing the rubber gasket. It does not require sealant. If properly fastened and the machine screws carefully tightened, it will remain water tight. Do not over tighten! If you cannot find Stan's instructions, let me know and I will post them.

Mine was a full wide neoprene gasket.

 

Here's a pic of the old one that was rotted.

Mike,

 

My existing gasket is 7.25 x 54.25.  I didn't examine the possibility of using narrower material--is that what you used?

 

Thanks,

The 40A product is currently out of stock at MSCDirect.com, although the 3/16"/60A material is readily available for $18.63 as follows:

 

USA Sealing

It does not require sealant. If properly fastened and the machine screws carefully tightened, it will remain water tight. Do not over tighten! If you cannot find Stan's instructions, let me know and I will post them.

Thanks Roger. The pivot hole was the hole that I was referring to.

Mike, Joe,

The gasket is a few inches below the waterline.  It only has to seal against < 1 psi.  The spec?d gasket material from USA sealing will work fine.  It will probably outlive you.

Joe,

I know on mine that if there's too much tension on the line, working the traveller to port or starboard is more difficult.  Other than that, I can only suggest cleaning the line, and making sure that all the little blocks turn freely.

My traveler conversion does not move easily and the line tension makes a big difference. Try easing the tension on the cam-cleat. This will make movement easier but it will never be fast and never be the tool you use to de-power quickly, the main sheet is best for that. What I like best about Stan?s invention is the ability to pull the pins from the ends and swing the traveler out of the way or take it off completely in seconds. I designed the ends and had them fabricated out of Delrin at a local machine shop.  If anyone is interested I can probably dig out the drawing.

I actually just replaced the red line and most of the little wheels (blocks). It transformed the traveler which is now very easy to use.
I got the parts via Charles who , as always, was extremely helpful!

Peter,I was wondering about the tension,? but it worked fine when i first got it. All the blocks seem to be turning freely. I will re-tie and adjust the bitter end knot and give the line a good wipe down. Do you think a thin coating of silicone would be helpful?JoeSent via the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

I found a drawing, but its not the drawing I was hoping to locate. I?ll try to attach it here.  IF it gets scrubbed, I?ll resend through my gmail account. 
Please let me know if the attachment makes it. 
Once the two pieces were fabricated, I installed them onto the split-backstay, then drilled a 1/4? hole through the assembly and used a 1/4? ?Fast-Pin? t keep it in place.  Its really easy to pull the fast-pin and swing one side out of the way of the motor, or the stern ladder on the other side. This makes it really convenient for boarding folks from astern (the ladder)  or working on the motor.

Mike McKay,

The last time that I needed to replace a centerboard trunk gasket, about 12 years ago on my original 1981, I used:

MSC Direct P/N:83039842 
Neoprene Rubber Thickness: 3/16 Width: 6 Length: 60 Durometer: 40 Color: Black

See the original email thread at:
http://www.rhodes22.org/pipermail/rhodes22-list/2011-January/067570.html

It worked very well.

Mike,

My existing gasket is 7.25 x 54.25.  I didn't examine the possibility of using narrower material--is that what you used?

The 40A product is currently out of stock at MSCDirect.com, although the 3/16"/60A material is readily available for $18.63 as follows:

USA Sealing
60 x 6 x 3/16? Black Neoprene Strip

or you can move up to 1/4"/40A material at $24.74 as follows:

Sorry, that?s not the one I used. If you look that up on Amazon they come in a wide variety of sizes and thickness. I listed that so you could get the brand name.

You're welcome to the drawing. The original file, which had additional drawings and instructions was corrupted in the 6 or 7 years since I made the design. I do have an extra set that I had made at the time. I don?t think I?ll need them as the originals are in top shape after 6 years of use - I would sell them for $100. 
I?ll take a couple of photos later today or tomorrow and get those to you as well.

Joe,

I would suggest giving the line a soak in a bucket of warm water with detergent, or better yet put it in a mesh bag and run it through your clothes washing machine.

Mike, Roger, Joe, et al,

Thank you for all your help.  I ordered the 6" x 60" 1/4" strip from MSC, which they promise will arrive tomorrow.  

I continue to find this forum to be a wonderful resource that adds so much value to owning a Rhodes.

Thanks again!

Mike McKay,

The last time that I needed to replace a centerboard trunk gasket, about 12 years ago on my original 1981, I used:

MSC Direct P/N:83039842 
Neoprene Rubber Thickness: 3/16 Width: 6 Length: 60 Durometer: 40 Color: Black

See the original email thread at:
http://www.rhodes22.org/pipermail/rhodes22-list/2011-January/067570.html

It worked very well.

Mike,

My existing gasket is 7.25 x 54.25.  I didn't examine the possibility of using narrower material--is that what you used?

Thanks,

Mike

The 40A product is currently out of stock at MSCDirect.com, although the 3/16"/60A material is readily available for $18.63 as follows:

USA Sealing
60 x 6 x 3/16? Black Neoprene Strip
Shore 60 A, 1,000 to 1,200 psi Tensile Strength, -40 to 212?F MSC# 57125841 Mfr# RS-N60-268
https://www.mscdirect.com/product/details/57125841

or you can move up to 1/4"/40A material at $24.74 as follows:

Sorry, that?s not the one I used. If you look that up on Amazon they come in a wide variety of sizes and thickness. I listed that so you could get the brand name.

If you clean it in a washing machine, it's best to put it into a mesh bag (preferable) or pillow case first.

Having some spare time and reliable  computer and internet access,  I
finished up week 5.  Posted below is the link for week 5 of our trip from
NW Greece to Turkey.  It covers the 250 mile crossing of the Aegean.  Lots
of fun and interesting places.  Enjoy (but not to the detriment of sailing
time on your own boat).

Thanks for sharing Chris!  As always, it's interesting to see the before
and after photos 50 years apart.  That monastery looks spectacular.

Just read this while traveling back from a sailing trip out of Rockland,
Maine where there is an amazing amount of schooners.  I was on a Norseman
447 on a trip through Morse Alpha Expeditions and got to do an overnight
sail for the first time.  The Maine coast is beautiful!  I attached a
couple of photos.

We?ve never been sailing in main, it sounds like a great trip.   I?ve been
on a couple of Norseman 447, I love all of Bob Perry's designs, solid
boats.  Don't make'em like they used to.  Headed for the Chesapeake in a
couple of weeks from Charlston, then who knows, maybe sail up to Main, it
sounds beautiful.

Jesse,

It looks like I'll be headed up to Rockland in a couple of weeks.  If all goes well, this will be the first time I managed to make it up to Maine in June.  Did you have any problems with mosquitoes? 

Just curious, overnight sail to where?

We were in Maine for a schooner cruise last year at the beginning of July
and didn't see any mosquitos at all.

Hi Peter,

There was one anchorage where we had some mosquitoes (Northwest Harbor on
Deer Isle) when the wind died, but it wasn't bad. Otherwise we didn't have
any bug issues at all.

Here's where we went:

   - started by anchoring out on south side of Rockland Harbor
   - sailed northeast and anchored in Northwest Harbor on Deer Isle
   - sailed northwest around Little Deer Isle and then southeast through
   Eggemoggin Reach, then east through Casco Passage, then hooked north around
   Black Island to anchor between Black, Opechee and Sheep islands.
   - sailed southeast around Great Duck Island then NNW between Mount
   Desert and Cranberry Islands all the way up north to the end of Somes Sound
   by Bar Island, then back south to anchor in Valley Cove near the mouth of
   Somes Sound
   - sailed south just a bit to Southwest Harbor and docked to walk around
   the town.  Then departed mid afternoon for our overnight passage.  Sailed
   east and then south around Sutton, Little Cranberry and Baker islands then
   continued south about 15 miles past Mount Desert Light (to get out to an
   area mostly free of lobster pots before dark).  In the middle of the night
   we started heading back northwest towards Rockland, keeping Vinalhaven
   Island to our north.

I'll put together a trip recap with photos and share that once I have it
assembled.

Jesse

Chris, that sounds nice to have an open schedule to allow for whatever
adventures suit the weather.

I'm going to be heading to the Chesapeake in early July for a Delmarva
circumnavigation for an ASA106 class through Maryland School of Sailing.
I'll be staying on the boat in Rock Hall the nights of July 1st and July
2nd before we get underway.  If by some miracle you or other Rhodies might
be in the neighborhood around then perhaps we could meet up.

Before buying our Rhodes, we saw a few Catalina 22s, and they all had a vintage looking wood support in the cabin...under the mast!? Where is the mast support in the Rhodes?? Is it inside the wood "frame" around the head?? Confused...and intrigued!Tony Jonaitis

I am giving away a 70?s era R-22.  Free for hauling. Bring your trailer, fix up a classic.  These were the ones with thick layup and woven cloth in the hull.   Not the cheap choppergun hulls of the 80?s.  Not the fastest but also not flexible lol. This one had hull and deck separation when sailing when the pop rivets corroded.  Could be restored or turn into a pocket trawler.

The support is directly under the mast and going down to the hull. Actual build depends on the vintage of the boat.

Itv it were me at that age, I probably have started out going to the store
and forgot where I was going.  So it begs the question.  On purpose?
Grin.  Amazing.

I?m in need of a new cover for the cabin settee cushion. The thought of
sewing one myself is not out of the question but not my first choice, so I
thought I?d ask if this is available. Thanks.

Hi All,
 
The saga of my centerboard continues.  After removing it we found that the
damage is quite extensive as can be seen from the attached pictures.  My
boat mechanic is very good with fiberglass, but I would greatly appreciate
any suggestions that you have regarding how to approach this repair.
 
We noticed that there appears to be tiny bits of metal embedded in the resin
at the leading edge of the centerboard, possibly lead shot?  I am guessing
that might have been an attempt to increase the weight of the centerboard,
but there did not seem to be enough to make much difference.  Any thoughts
on that?
 
I reached out to Stan directly about the centerboard but haven't heard back
in over a week.  Has anyone heard from him recently?  My last email from him
was on May 1st.
 
Thanks,

Ouch!  I wonder if there was a void there that contributed to the damage.
I?ve never delt with that bad of damage to the CB. I suspect it won?t be a
complicated fix when all is said and done. Good luck and take a few
?during? and ?after? photos.

Slim -

I have an extra set of Rhodes 22 cabin cushions with covers which I can make available to you.  They are not new  (probably vintage 2007) but they are in pretty good shape.  However, I cannot send you photos right now because the cushions are in northern Michigan and I am in West Virginia.  I will be in Michigan at the end of this month.  If you are interested in the covers, call me at (304) 685-6693 or write me at bobfcohen at gmail.com.

Mike:
I had to do some major repair on my keel which developed very large cracks al along the bottom. Flakes of metal that I assume were lead were leaking out. I assume that this was added for ballast. I also repaired my centre boad and found solid lead  at the tip. I have the original centerboard.
I didn't try replacing the lead from the keel. I did find gowever that both the keel and the centerboard had substantial voids in them which I attempted to fill with epoxy. Water getting into the core and freezing was the likely culprit causing the cracks.

I was able to fix it all and I am no expert.

I actually ordered this but should have measured first.  On my boat 6" wide is not sufficient--some holes are further apart than that.

If anyone on the list can use this, please let me know.

Mike McKay,

The last time that I needed to replace a centerboard trunk gasket, about 12 years ago on my original 1981, I used:

MSC Direct P/N:83039842 
Neoprene Rubber Thickness: 3/16 Width: 6 Length: 60 Durometer: 40 Color: Black

See the original email thread at:
http://www.rhodes22.org/pipermail/rhodes22-list/2011-January/067570.html

It worked very well.

Mike,

My existing gasket is 7.25 x 54.25.  I didn't examine the possibility of using narrower material--is that what you used?

Currently none of the rubber sheeting on Amazon or McMaster-Carr are the right size for the gasket.  Has anyone found another option?  Stan is incommunicado recently.

Sorry, that?s not the one I used. If you look that up on Amazon they come in a wide variety of sizes and thickness. I listed that so you could get the brand name.

Hi Mary Lou,

Yes, MD School of Sailing is at Lankford Bay Marina.  That would be great
to meet up sometime on the evening of Saturday, July 2 if you and Fred
happen to be available.

Mike,

I think the centerboard has a metal skeleton inside of it.  My centerboard was molded in 2 halves, which were glued to the metal skeleton.  In addition, I think there is some lead shot for ballast that is glued inside.  The impact that produced the gaping hole on your centerboard may have dislodged some of this lead shot.

When you're sailing the Bay, plan a stop at Deltaville, VA. Nice facilities and accommodations and floating slips at Regatta Point Marina on Broad Creek. If you prefer to anchor out, Fishing Bay, at the mouth of the Piankatank is one of the best anchorages on the Bay.? Fishing Bay Marina offers access to swimming pool, bath and showers.Let me know ahead of time direct at jpd9668 at gmail.com if you want to plan a stop.Joe DempseySV RespiteDeltaville, VASent via the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

Mike:

Below is a link to the rubber sheet warehouse store where I believe we purchased  neoprene for the centerboard cap repair.

Amazon.com: Neoprene Rubber Sheet, Rolls, Strips 3/16" (.187") Thick x 8" Wide x 10" Long Solid Rubber : Industrial & Scientific<https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016C5GMDK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1>

Please note that I spent a number of years setting up a boat repair and restoration facility in Maryland that included re-establishing relationships with various boat suppliers for trailers, rigging, sails, hardware, and other items however after a few years of operation I ended this service due to threats and feedback I received from the Rhodes community.  Perhaps I will re-visit this service again in the future in a more friendly environment.


Please note our new office address and phone number

Mike McKay,

The last time that I needed to replace a centerboard trunk gasket, about 12 years ago on my original 1981, I used:

MSC Direct P/N:83039842
Neoprene Rubber Thickness: 3/16 Width: 6 Length: 60 Durometer: 40 Color: Black

See the original email thread at:
http://www.rhodes22.org/pipermail/rhodes22-list/2011-January/067570.html

It worked very well.

Mike,

My existing gasket is 7.25 x 54.25.  I didn't examine the possibility of using narrower material--is that what you used?

Hi Chris,

Thank you for this.  I had overlooked this seller on Amazon previously because I was specifically looking for 40A rubber and this is 60A.  However, they do have a strip that is 8" wide and 10' long which is much closer to what I need than I had found so far.  In the end I ordered a piece of 3/16" 40A sheet that is 5' long and 36" wide because it was about the same price.  

If other Rhodies need gasket material, I will have plenty left over.

Thanks again,

Mike

Mike:

Below is a link to the rubber sheet warehouse store where I believe we purchased  neoprene for the centerboard cap repair.

Amazon.com: Neoprene Rubber Sheet, Rolls, Strips 3/16" (.187") Thick x 8" Wide x 10" Long Solid Rubber : Industrial & Scientific<https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016C5GMDK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1>

Please note that I spent a number of years setting up a boat repair and restoration facility in Maryland that included re-establishing relationships with various boat suppliers for trailers, rigging, sails, hardware, and other items however after a few years of operation I ended this service due to threats and feedback I received from the Rhodes community.  Perhaps I will re-visit this service again in the future in a more friendly environment.

Mike McKay,

The last time that I needed to replace a centerboard trunk gasket, about 12 years ago on my original 1981, I used:

MSC Direct P/N:83039842
Neoprene Rubber Thickness: 3/16 Width: 6 Length: 60 Durometer: 40 Color: Black

See the original email thread at:
http://www.rhodes22.org/pipermail/rhodes22-list/2011-January/067570.html

It worked very well.

My existing gasket is 7.25 x 54.25.  I didn't examine the possibility of using narrower material--is that what you used?

As can be seen in the picture, my General Boats furling foil has a broken joining HDPE connector.  It?s been working fine when the pieces are butted up to each other, but it does give me some concern.  However, fixing it requires skills I don?t have.  Any suggestions?

Mike,

Can you pull out the two halves from the aluminum extrusion?  After that, maybe there is a local machine shop to make you a new insert?  I would make the new insert out of delrin, which is a glass fiber reinforced nylon composite.

Actually Delrin is not a glass fiber reinforced nylon product.  It is a
uniform acetal monopolymer product.  It machines nicely but the surface
finish can look dull.

If it is just a cylinder with 4 holes in it (hard to see on my phone), it
would be simple to buy the right material and use the holes in the metal to
mark the hole locations in the plastic.

It?s not a simple cylinder. It?s more an irregular oval with a groove in one side corresponding to the slot for the luff tape.  I?d also have to redo the headstay because that runs though the center of it. The whole process  won?t be trivial. 

Might be worth replacing the furling system altogether  How do Rhodies like the CDI furler?

I had the same piece break on my furler and thought it would be easy to get
a new one machined at a shop. Because of its odd shape along with the
groove, it proved to be very difficult for the machinist to replicate.
Ultimately he had to come by my shop and take  a bunch of
detailed measurements on the inside of the tube to get the piece to fit
correctly. It was a pain and took a couple weeks to complete. I had asked
him to make it out of more rigid material and he said that wasn't a good
idea as the part needed to flex a bit. He did make it 1" longer on both
ends than the original. It's been a year now with no problems.

Getting the cable routed back through it was pretty straightforward. I
unscrewed the two part block at the top and was able to fit the cable end
through the hole in the center of the new part.

I'm guessing that as hard as it was to machine, that the maker of the
original furler tube had the part injection molded.

Mike,

The insert doesn?t need to be solid.  Just machine a narrow slot in one side of the insert from the surface down to the central bore.  Then, you can wedge the slot open with a flat bladed screwdriver while you slide the forestay in.  When you remove the screwdriver blade, the slot will close.  Once the insert is in place, the ID of the furling extrusion will hold the slot closed.

With modern CNC machine tools, pretty much any shape can be created.  The machinist will have the old broken insert to use as a template.

Delrin 150 has  tensile, flexural, and compressive moduli of 450,000 psi.  It will stretch ~30% before failure.  It is both more rigid  vs HDPE and sufficiently flexible for this application.  It has excellent fatigue strength and is unaffected by water.  It has excellent machinability.

Mike,

I replaced my OEM standard roller furler with a Harken Unit 0 about 30 years ago.  With the Unit 0, I got all the advantages of independent upper and lower swivels and an aerodynamically shaped headfoil with twin luff grooves.  The independent upper and lower swivels enable the use of foam luff pads on the genoa for better furled sail shape over a wider wind speed range.  The furling mechanism uses Torlon ball, needle, and roller bearings throughout.  The only maintenance required is an occasional freshwater flush on the upper and lower swivels.  After 30 years, the thing still spins as freely a bicycle rim!  It?s an expensive solution; but, it really is a nice piece of gear.

For what it is worth, my very old CDI furler finally fell apart (the drum shattered) and I replaced it with the Shaefer 500 Snap Furler. I had to have the bold replaced as the furler requires one with a small diameter. On the whole I am satisfied with the furler but I really don't have much to compare it to. It is not a high end furler but it is less costly than most of the others and seems to do the job for casual cruising.

Mike,

The insert doesn?t need to be solid.  Just machine a narrow slot in one side of the insert from the surface down to the central bore.  Then, you can wedge the slot open with a flat bladed screwdriver while you slide the forestay in.  When you remove the screwdriver blade, the slot will close.  Once the insert is in place, the ID of the furling extrusion will hold the slot closed.

With modern CNC machine tools, pretty much any shape can be created.  The machinist will have the old broken insert to use as a template.

Delrin 150 has  tensile, flexural, and compressive moduli of 450,000 psi.  It will stretch ~30% before failure.  It is both more rigid  vs HDPE and sufficiently flexible for this application.  It has excellent fatigue strength and is unaffected by water.  It has excellent machinability.

Subject: Re: [Rhodes22-list] Furling foil

I had the same piece break on my furler and thought it would be easy to get
a new one machined at a shop. Because of its odd shape along with the
groove, it proved to be very difficult for the machinist to replicate.
Ultimately he had to come by my shop and take  a bunch of
detailed measurements on the inside of the tube to get the piece to fit
correctly. It was a pain and took a couple weeks to complete. I had asked
him to make it out of more rigid material and he said that wasn't a good
idea as the part needed to flex a bit. He did make it 1" longer on both
ends than the original. It's been a year now with no problems.

Getting the cable routed back through it was pretty straightforward. I
unscrewed the two part block at the top and was able to fit the cable end
through the hole in the center of the new part.

I'm guessing that as hard as it was to machine, that the maker of the
original furler tube had the part injection molded.

Mike,Respite has the CDI Flex Furler2. When I took her out rhe first few times the furler was rery difficult to operate. I thoughti was doing something wrong. I inquired with Stan who told me? that it was probably in need of cleaning. I called CDI and Joel talked me through disassembly of the furling cup. Didn't need? to lower the stay. Turns out the bearing cup was corroded (due to poor maintenance)? he shipped me a new bearing, cup and bearings. I was up and running the day after that arrived. CDI is very helpful and easy to work with.? Hint: Good maintenance is worthwhile! Really difficult. Hose down with fresh water after each use!Here's their contact info/website:www.sailcdi.com?Joe DempseySV RespiteDeltaville, VASent via the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

Bob,

I installed EVA foam material to the cockpit floor of our 2010 Rhodes 22.  It?s 3 mm thick, with an adhesive backing, 28 5/8? wide x 54 3/8? long?custom cut by the manufacturer. That covers the existing textured area in the fiberglass of the floor.  I provided templates to the manufacturer, SeaDek, for the floor and for the seats.  They should still have the drawings, dated 3-29-2011.  We did not order foam for the seats, which would have been 20 mmm thick.

We really like it for the padding it provides when we?re kneeling on the floor and for the extra traction when the boat heels.

If there is a downside to the product it?s that dirt really clings to the pad.  But the product is still in excellent shape.  If it ever wears out, I?ll order it again.

Steve.

'84 R22 with centerboard stuck on penant rope.
Nothing fits down penant tube (don't have golf club as suggested).
But does this look familiar to anyone?

Thanks, Bob

Subject: Re: [Rhodes22-list] Swing keel stuck.

Jack, I just slid the shaft from the golf club into the tube adjacent to the pennant. The narrow diameter end of the shaft will fit, and when you "feel" an obstruction - it's the raised center board. Then, I applied a little force with a hammer on the other end of the shaft. When I removed the shaft the center board lowered. As stated by others, it's a good idea to raise and lower the center board routinely. Regards, Dan

'84 R22 with centerboard stuck on penant rope.
Nothing fits down penant tube (don't have golf club as suggested).
But does this look familiar to anyone?

Thanks, Bob

Jack, I just slid the shaft from the golf club into the tube adjacent to the pennant. The narrow diameter end of the shaft will fit, and when you "feel" an obstruction - it's the raised center board. Then, I applied a little force with a hammer on the other end of the shaft. When I removed the shaft the center board lowered. As stated by others, it's a good idea to raise and lower the center board routinely. Regards, Dan

Wow, that looks so different from my boat! I have had the "stuck" problem before and am actually writing up a description of the larger project. But, let me ask, is the boat in the water or on the trailer?

Wow, that looks so different from my boat! I have had the "stuck" problem before and am actually writing up a description of the larger project. But, let me ask, is the boat in the water or on the trailer?

> Jack, I just slid the shaft from the golf club into the tube adjacent to the pennant. The narrow diameter end of the shaft will fit, and when you "feel" an obstruction - it's the raised center board. Then, I applied a little force with a hammer on the other end of the shaft. When I removed the shaft the center board lowered. As stated by others, it's a good idea to raise and lower the center board routinely. Regards, Dan

Wow, that looks so different from my boat! I have had the "stuck" problem before and am actually writing up a description of the larger project. But, let me ask, is the boat in the water or on the trailer?

> Jack, I just slid the shaft from the golf club into the tube adjacent to the pennant. The narrow diameter end of the shaft will fit, and when you "feel" an obstruction - it's the raised center board. Then, I applied a little force with a hammer on the other end of the shaft. When I removed the shaft the center board lowered. As stated by others, it's a good idea to raise and lower the center board routinely. Regards, Dan

Okay, mine was on the trailer. Long story short: I took the centerboard cap/lid/hood off to gain more direct access. However, you cannot do this on the water, since -- as I understand it -- the top of the centerboard trunk is below the waterline.

Although I did not have CB problems,? the trunk was leaking and I had to replace CB gasket. I did this while on the trailer. CB is accessable once cap and gasket are removed. I remember seeing a post on replacing the CB pivot pin. Removing the CB can certainly be done but I'll bet it's a pain in the ass.?TIP: When raising CB, haul to top and back off about 1-2 inches before cleating it off.Sent via the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

Way back in April, 2019 I requested help from the list on trouble I was having with my diamond board. I received a lot of great feedback and promised to share details. This was one part of a larger project that kept the boat out of the water for a couple of years. I took pictures along the way and have written up a short report on the centerboard and interior work:

http://lillipellilabs.com/files/centerboard-removal-2019.pdf <http://lillipellilabs.com/files/centerboard-removal-2019.pdf>

There are lots of pictures -- maybe too many. Please consider this "version 1". I'm sure that there are errors and omissions, which I'll try to fix as they surface. I just wanted to put it into the Rhodiesphere quickly, given the list members struggling with centerboards now. The boat is very obviously in my driveway, but I just realized I should add a disclaimer to not attempt what I did with the boat in the water (unless you fancy owning a Rhodes submarine).

Just out of curiosity:
1.  How much difference is the Rhodes' performance with the Diamondboard
keel?
2.  Has anyone ever converted from the original to the Diamondboard?
3.  If so, is it simply a matter of unpinning the original and replacing
with the DB or does this require a different pin
     and pin location?

I have had both and can't tell the difference in performance,  but it's
hard to compare unless you were sailing two boats in the same conditions
and adjustments.

The diamondboard is easier to raise and lower but even that may be because
it's had less use.

Okay, my hosting provider is experiencing an outage. Perhaps the overwhelming demand for this report has brought machighway to their knees!

If it doesn't clear up in a couple of hours, I'll move to another server. Sorry. It's a bit over 9MB, so I am hesitant to try to post it to the list.

Hi Joe,

The diamond board goes along with the IMF main and genoa rig.  It adjusts
the center of force for better balance and stability but sacrifices upwind
pointing.  If you have the earlier standard rig, the centerboard gives
better balance and pointing upwind.

Regards,

Rick Lange

Actually John, please do attempt to post the document to the list.  The Mailman list software will keep a copy on the server, and just put a link in the email sent to all list members.  So, the size of the document is only an issue for the email from you to the Mailman server.  

If sending your document to the list as an attachment fails for some reason, nothing bad actually happens.  But if it works, your wonderful document will live in our archive, and be accessible to list members, so long as the list may live.

First year of sailing my R22. Over half the time I try to furl my mainsail the topping lift gets sucked in and fouls operation. When I have crew, They hold out topping lift and all works smoothly. Singlehanding is a challenge.  I had taken down and washed all my lines. I wonder if I reinstalled topping lift incorrectly or is this a known problem? I guess I could practice my mast dropping skills but would rather not.

Any advice on replacing my tiller with one that is as close to Stan's as
possible?

It looks like one that is 2H x 1.5W x 48L or whatever length will work.

Thanks!

I just made a tiller out out some leftover 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 IPE with a 3/4 x 1/1/2 strip at rear.  It was intended as a temp but it?s been in for 4 seasons with no issues.

Thanks Rodney,

It's probably user-error but I couldn't find any dimensions or details
aside from rise.  I may give them a call.

Looks like West Marine and Defender have some options.

Wilson,

The topping lift on my old boat could be adjusted from the cockpit (see
attached).  Kept the line out of the way; made it easy to raise the boom
out of the way when motoring; and made it WAY easier to lower the aft end
of the boom when sailing with the mainsail and poptop down.

Until you mentioned it I didn't think about this problem but my topping
lift flops around my mast on my newer boat too.   When I furl the
mainsail back in, I pull the inhaul line with my left hand while holding
the outhaul line with my right hand to keep the sail from getting out of
control.  Maybe that keeps the boom down and the topping lift tight enough
to not get in the way.  Not sure if that helps.  I'll check it out next
time I go sailing.

Hi Wilson:

As you can see from Lee's picture the topping lift runs down through a
spring-loaded block and then back to the cockpit.

The topping lift should hold the Boom just above horizontal when furling
and unfurling main sail. Loosen enough to let main sail assume correct
shape when sailing.

Message-ID: <5320CA41-4C2F-45E1-BC77-44AEB5B905AF@gmail.com>

I am planning on replacing my headsail furler.  I currently have the GB furler, which works but has some issues.  I believe that GB transitioned to the CDI furler in later years, so that?s on my short list.  If you have that, how do you like it?  Do you have other recommendations?

In addition, Do you have any insights or experience into what modifications would be required to adapt my exist 130 Genoa to a different model furler?

Thanks!

I?ve never had that problem. When furling the main, I lock in the topping line (I have marked it so I know where the place is to keep boom where I need it); then I tighten the main sheet so there is no slack in the topping line. Ta Da!!

If you were able to arrange to drive to General Boat (maybe Charles can
help?) there were a bunch of used tillers around when I was there in March

 Any advice on replacing my tiller with one that is as close to Stan's as

It looks like one that is 2H x 1.5W x 48L or whatever length will work.

Thanks!

Stan promised me a red fiberglass tiller but I think he might be on a
sabbatical.

I found one at Defender for about $100 (2016).  It was a little long so I
shortened it and reshaped the aft end to fit.  It worked great on the Carol

Dear Rhodies,
I am wondering, in the original built, is the forward bulkhead ever attached to the hull, using Fiberglass tab. There?s a half inch gap between the bulkhead and hull.
Can you kindly peek under the bench seat, and see if and how your bulkhead is attached to the hull.
This picture is taken with the boat in the water.

Thank you in advance,
Patrick

For those who are interested in purchasing Rick's boat, the pdf file (http://rhodes22.org/pipermail/rhodes22-list/attachments/20220613/48986368/attachment.pdf) is very detailed.

Message-ID: <E1o2IHW-007IBX-2m@s152.servername.online>

Patrick,

The view under my settee is similar to what you show in your picture.  There's a gap between the bulkhead and the hull, and no visible means of attachment.  Looking at the back side (the side closer to the bow), I find fiberglass tabbing attachment near the top edge both port and starboard.  

Unfortunately, I've got something installed in this space that prevents me from seeing if there's additional attachment points further down.

HTH,

--Peter

Wow?cool coincidence. That was me. We moved to the DC area last week and
I?m moving Fretless up to a marina near Annapolis. Keeping her at a friends
house in Richmond for a few weeks to get some long overdue projects done.

To clarify for the group - this was Fretless on the trailer that was hard
to catch up to!  A buddy and I were going to sail her up to Annapolis over
four or five days this weekend, but the winds after today were terrible for
that. I?m also still working on improving my motor mount, so we didn?t even
day sail her today before rigging her for the road. Hopefully she?ll be
back on the waters near Annapolis soon!

Hi Olivier
Where are you going to berth it at in Annapolis?
I keep Sail la Vie at Castle Marina on Kent Island, directly across the
bridge from Annapolis.

My plan is keeping her on the trailer at Holiday Hill Marina in Edgewater.
We?ve had her on the hard at a yard near Urbanna for years and I like
keeping her dry between sailing.

Thanks a lot Peter. I am going to leave it alone. But I will beef up the longitudinal .

Hey I sort of know where that is. A Rhodes on the Rhode River. It will be 
somewhat familiar waters for the boat. When we had her we visited the West 
and Rhode Rivers several times. Great sailing in the area though I expect a 
lot more crowded than on the Southern Bay. Some of our favorite anchorages 
are on the Choptank, the Miles and the Wye just across the Bay

Are you going to be able to leave her with the mast up on the trailer? We 
did that for the first two years we had her up on the Middle River. It was 
great.

Welcome to the (sort of) neighborhood.

Mary Lou and Fred

That?s my plan?we?ve had the mast up the entire time we?ve had her except
to replace the main last season. I?m looking forward to exploring those
waters!

Looking for a Rhodes 22 mast in New England...prefer the in-mast-furling mast! Our newly acquired Rhodes purchase is riddled with problems...and we are freaking out. Get rid of it, or muddle through somehow! Damn! Anyway, you can see the damage the spreaders have caused to the mast. Some folks say weld aluminum patches on to the mast, and drill a new hole for the spreaders. Some say that would not work. Any thoughts/opinions/sarcasm is welcome. We are really feeling defeated, and my wife is in tears. Our first-ever sailboat is a lemon, it seems. Now we have to figure out what to do with this lemon....LikeCommentShare

Honestly that doesn?t look too bad to me, and I?d be shocked if that was
the only reason to get an entire new (specialized and hard to find) mast.
Remember that, under load, the spreaders are under compression and not
tension, so the mounts to the mast are more to keep them in place when
they?re not under tension. Just like the bolt at the foot of the mast.

I think there are a few ways to address the issue, including reinforcing
the material behind it, or just adding a new piece of thin strong material
between the spreader and the mast to act like a giant washer of sorts. You
might also be able to relocate the spreaders up or down the mast an inch or
two to find some good metal to connect them to?I don?t think that small of
a change in geometry would cause other issues.

Tony:

I would not write the mast off if the only damage is where the spreader base was torn out. The fact that the base tore out without bending the mast or causing other damage is actually a good indication that the mast is sound. I think that damage should be reparable by a professional aluminum welder. Alternatively, it might be possible to find or have made new spreader bases that are larger and could span the damage. Don't get discouraged, this is all part of sailing. Believe me there are much worse things that could go wrong.

There is a 1980s vintage for sale on Facebook for about $300 in
Fredericksburg Virginia.

I'd sell you a mast but I'm down to only one spare now. You could
contactStan at General Boats to see if he has any old ones in the yard, but
good luck getting a return call of email.

(But for some reason, I'd you bad mouth him on the list, you usually get a
quick come back...LOL...go figure)

The boat in Virginia on a trailer on Facebook...if it doesn't get stripped
off the email.

It appears to be the IMF mast.
We can wait for Roger to respond, but if that happened to my mast, here is
what I would do.
After taking measurements to get the spreader positions recorded, I would
remove the main sail and furling tube assembly. Remove the spreader
brackets. I'm do not have an IMF mast but the spreader brackets aren't
through bolted through the mast from side to side like some older standard
masts I've seen.

Then contact a local machine shop or welding shop. Have the damaged areas
cut out or cleaned up. Stop drill any radiating cracks, then TIG weld them
up.
Then TIG weld 3/16ths" or 1/4" plates over the damaged areas/holes, and
remount the spreader brackets. Survey how you'll remount the brackets
before the welding though.

Just my thoughts.

Tony,

I hate to be the bearer of bad news.  As I look at the damage, it looks like it spans at least 25% of the circumference of the mast.  Even worse, the two holes are right across from each other. Aluminum alloys have to be specially heat treated in order to be both strong and fatigue resistant.  The welding process will destroy the heat treatment in the heat affected area.  Even if you welded a patch all the way around the mast big enough to cover the damage, the weld bead will create a weak, soft spot in the mast above and below the patch.  The only solution would be to run the whole mast thru heat treatment after the patch was welded on.  That would require a furnace big enough to fit the whole mast and all the fittings would have to be removed first and then reattached.  At the end of the day, it all comes down to cost.  I suspect it will be cheaper to replace the mast vs repair it.

I'm pretty sure it's 1-1/4" coil hose.

Stephen, the hose is 100 miles away from me right now. Can you tell me what
size you found as a match?  Thanks.

I think I did that in 2016.  Sorry but my memory is not that good.  But the
point is there is no need to order it in advance.  I just took off the old
one and matched it at a local auto parts store.  Sold the boat last year
and the hose was still fine.

Although four people had a mast for sale (nobody could think of a price, though, and wanted me to come up with one), we had a long talk with a well-regarded local aluminum-welding expert, and we are going to give that a try first.? If that doesn't work, then we are going to take a hit, and offer the boat/trailer for short money.? A very horrible experience, but it is our fault for trusting.?

Be sure to let us know how the mast repair works out. You are certainly not going to be the last to face mast repair. Good luck

1.  I was motoring around the lake the other day trying to get the ten
hours of break-in period on my new outboard.  That's a lot of motoring when
I could have been sailing.  I was going 3.5 mph with the diamond
centerboard in the up position.  I lowered the board and it slowed me down
to 3.4 mph.  May not be surprising to a lot of you but I'd thought it would
have slowed the boat down morre.

2,  My old motor was a 9.9hp.  I thought that a 8hp would be ideal for our
boats but I went down to a 6hp because of the weight difference,  Not sure
if I can manhandle the smaller engine on and off the boat but I can
probably find some kid who can.  At slightly less than one third throttle
the Tohatsu long shaft moved the boat at 5.1 mph in calm waters.  It will
be interesting to see what it can do in a strong headwind.

Hi Lee,

S/V Dynamic Equilibrium came with an Evinrude 6 bhp long shaft outboard.  It was OK; but, when it came time to replace it, I opted for an extra long shaft Honda 8 bhp.  The 6 bhp outboard was plenty powerful enough to power the boat against any headwinds.  But, with the wind come waves and the 6 bhp long shaft Evinrude would frequently cavitate.  The extra long shaft Honda was a significant improvement.  If an extra long shaft 6 bhp outboard had been available, I would have considered it.  All the power in the world is of no use if you can?t couple it to the water.  Attached is a photo of the stern of my boat with the motor mount in the fully lowered position.  Note how the prop is well below the waterline.

Hey Roger,

I wanted to go with the 3hp electric but I  thought it might not be enough.

Hi Lee,

Based on the % throttle required to maneuver my boat in strong head and cross winds,  I estimate the minimum required power is about 4 bhp.  But again, this assumes the prop is submerged deeply enough to not cavitate in the troughs between waves.  If you have to throttle back because of cavitation; then, all bets are off.

Tony,

The plastic spacers are there to prevent the stainless steel spreader bases from corroding the aluminum mast.  It just needs to electrically insulate the mast from the spreader base.  I?ve never seen anyone selling them.  However, I have made electrical isolators for my mast from a plastic milk jug and a pair of scissors.  Note that you also need to coat the stainless steel mounting bolts with never seize or dielectric grease to prevent the threads from corroding.  You could also coat the back of the spreader bases with epoxy and that will also work to keep the stainless steel away from the aluminum.  Anyway, don?t just bolt the spreader bases to the mast without attending to this very important detail.  Your mast will probably be ruined within one season!

Hi Tony,

Large nylon washers found at your hardware store work fine.

Hi Rodney 
Received our check today for the Delrin Traveler Bar Ends I sent you - many thanks. 
Let me know how it works out - I must say - I love mine and use them every time my wife gets on the boat from the beach - I pull the pin and swing the traveller out of the way - or take it off. 
If I use the swim ladder, I swing the traveller out of the way first as well. 
It also swings out of the way while  I?m operating the outboard, which I usually do with the rudder in the up position - whenever I'm backing up to the beach or in the shallows.  
Rhodies remember - the Centerboard and Rudder are vulnerable to damage while backing up (intentionally or unintentionally).
Always fully raise the CB while backing up in shallow water, launching or tied up. 
Ric

Hampton Bays, NY 
PS 
Here is a pic of what might happen  when you launch with the Center Board control line unsecured which allows the CB  to drop. 
I successfully retrieved  the boat in the fall of 2021, then relaunched to one the boat forward on the trailer,  my helper had released the ?redline like I asked him to,  but he released the CB line instead of the jib fuller line (also red) and I didn?t realize it. As this happened the boat over forward on its own. I was thrilled. 
I didn?t notice that the boat had sunk onto its trailer and filled with water to a few inches above the cabin sole  until I pulled it back out and noticed water pouring out of the CB trunk. 
What a mess.! I ordered a new CB cap from Stan and I made the repairs myself.

Every year I paint and launch my boat.  Never had a leak ( other that a thru hull that needed  to be replaced).  This year my wife was ill and required my attention so I brought boat to a boatyard for painting, starting up engine and launching.  After waiting  several weeks they finally told me it was launched.  I got a call a few days later that it had partially sunk. I have no idea what they did but my boat and batteries were submerged and ruined. This is picture of the hull in front of keel with a crack that obviously occurred after they painted it.  They are claiming it was a pre existing condition but I know she was seaworthy last season and I would have noticed this when I power washed bottom. I?m thinking they either bounced it in ground or strapped wrong.  Has anyone else ever had a similar incident?

What a shame. It looks to me like the boat was dropped. I don't see how misplacing the lifting straps could do such damage.

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Sunken boat

Every year I paint and launch my boat.  Never had a leak ( other that a thru hull that needed  to be replaced).  This year my wife was ill and required my attention so I brought boat to a boatyard for painting, starting up engine and launching.  After waiting  several weeks they finally told me it was launched.  I got a call a few days later that it had partially sunk. I have no idea what they did but my boat and batteries were submerged and ruined. This is picture of the hull in front of keel with a crack that obviously occurred after they painted it.  They are claiming it was a pre existing condition but I know she was seaworthy last season and I would have noticed this when I power washed bottom. I?m thinking they either bounced it in ground or strapped wrong.  Has anyone else ever had a similar incident?

26 June 2022 - An attempt to "free" my CB from below and while underwater.

While anchored in 4' - 6' of beautiful, NH, Lake water...I dove underneath the boat to take a look.
I attempted to wiggle a wire above the CB to "yank" it down out of the Keel. (this failed).

I was able to fit the handle of an adjustable wrench up in between the CB and Keel. This allowed me to jiggle and the space while my wife pulled the penant from topside in the boat.
1.5 hrs later, the jiggling allowed a loop of penant rope to drop out of the keel, starboard side.
Called it a night and motored to slip.

I intend to return for a 2nd try, bringing with me a flat bar and crowbar for more leverage.
Even providing a little bit more wiggle room must allow the person topside to pull more penant rope out to day light, right?

Subject: Re: [Rhodes22-list] Swing keel stuck.

Although I did not have CB problems,? the trunk was leaking and I had to replace CB gasket. I did this while on the trailer. CB is accessable once cap and gasket are removed. I remember seeing a post on replacing the CB pivot pin. Removing the CB can certainly be done but I'll bet it's a pain in the ass.?TIP: When raising CB, haul to top and back off about 1-2 inches before cleating it off.Sent via the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

What a shame. It looks to me like the boat was dropped. I don't see how misplacing the lifting straps could do such damage.

 I have a Triad trailer and a boat stand that Stan cut for me from a trailer.? I don't have a roller like that on either, the boat is supported only by the two curved/carpeted boards on each side.? Seems like that'd be a lot of weight to put on that roller, especially if while lowering it onto the trailer, they lowered the forward part of the boat onto it first (or dropped it on that roller as Graham suggested), or while raising the boat off the trailer if they lifted the after end first.

I moor my boat in shallow water.
During normal low tide the keel is off the bottom by a few inches. 
When the tide is below normal, sometimes the keel rests on the sandy/small stone bottom.
Sometimes this results in a small stone getting wedged between the CB and the trunk. 
The only way to clear it is to dive under the boat.  I have a long shank screw driver that I use to scrape the stone out. 
I imagine marine growth could do the same thing and be remedied the  same way.
If your CB pendant is loose, be sure to be out of the way when the CB swings down. 
I often set the pedant to about half way, then make the dive. 
For the old style  center board ( don?t know which you have) the small turning blocks could be bent or jammed also.
The blocks are only available in the UK. 
Good Luck!

It appears that the boatyard placed a jack between the front of the shoal keel and the extension tongue of the trailer and a pair of jack stands at the stern. They then lift her to paint above the roller and the bunks. Those of us who have been around Rhodes 22s know better than to lift from the bottom, even with a v-block. The hull was never designed to support the weight of the boat in this area.

The hull can be repaired by a competent glass mechanic. The interior, electrical and mechanical system damage may result in insurance "totaling" the boat. How much insurance does the yard have?

If you want to sail this season, you might be better off looking for a used boat and "parting" the Rhodes out, depending on the quality of the rigging, engine, etc.

Every year I paint and launch my boat.  Never had a leak ( other that a thru hull that needed  to be replaced).  This year my wife was ill and required my attention so I brought boat to a boatyard for painting, starting up engine and launching.  After waiting  several weeks they finally told me it was launched.  I got a call a few days later that it had partially sunk. I have no idea what they did but my boat and batteries were submerged and ruined. This is picture of the hull in front of keel with a crack that obviously occurred after they painted it.  They are claiming it was a pre existing condition but I know she was seaworthy last season and I would have noticed this when I power washed bottom. I?m thinking they either bounced it in ground or strapped wrong.  Has anyone else ever had a similar incident?

 So the roller is not the problem in ordinary use: that leaves us with dropped on the roller, or, lowered onto the roller first at too much of an angle such that it was momentarily supporting most of the boat.? And must have happened after painting as you said. I agree it's not lifting strap placement.? Must have made an audible cracking noise, so someone knows.??Larry??

I don't have a roller like that on either, the boat is supported only by the two curved/carpeted boards on each side.? Seems like that'd be a lot of weight to put on that roller, especially if while lowering it onto the trailer, they lowered the forward part of the boat onto it first (or dropped it on that roller as Graham suggested), or while raising the boat off the trailer if they lifted the after end first.

Was it handled on their travel lift @ Mariners? As a sail-only marina, they used to be decent, but have lost a lot of business. I haven?t used Tom, but he?s been recommended and close by. 2 other names in demand after Sandy were Glenn Edwards, especially on larger boats, and possibly Don Balke in Tuckerton.

Chris, where was yours ?manhandled?? 

I used GEB Marina on Green Street, Tuckerton, for many years as there were so few travel lifts on the island, especially that catered to smaller sailboats. They were reasonable and fairly easy to schedule, even helped pull my boat amid the chaos of Hurricane Sandy. They were recently bought and building both their marina business and the Dockside Cafe.

Here is my Triad Trailer. The roller is clearly installed to assist with recovering the Rhodes 22 onto the trailer via winching. While I am not certain this to be true, the position of the roller seems to be below the level of it appears that the boat eventually "climbs" off of the roller as it approaches the biw stop i.e. the roller does not permnently support the Rhodes. My Rhodes is lifted onto my trailer with a travel lift in slings. There is no weight on the keel or the roller.Joe DempseySV RespiteDeltaville, VASent via the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

Thanks Ric!

I should add that the CB is stuck because I didn't raise the penant line when the trailer roller, tucked the CB into the keel when taking the boat out of the water last season.
The penant line is sandwiched I feel in between the keel & CB.

The CB on my boat is the old style and the same shape as the rudder.

It is nice to hear someone else "dives" under to fix the issue.

Subject: Re: [Rhodes22-list] Swing keel stuck.

I moor my boat in shallow water.
During normal low tide the keel is off the bottom by a few inches.
When the tide is below normal, sometimes the keel rests on the sandy/small stone bottom.
Sometimes this results in a small stone getting wedged between the CB and the trunk.
The only way to clear it is to dive under the boat.  I have a long shank screw driver that I use to scrape the stone out.
I imagine marine growth could do the same thing and be remedied the  same way.
If your CB pendant is loose, be sure to be out of the way when the CB swings down.
I often set the pedant to about half way, then make the dive.
For the old style  center board ( don?t know which you have) the small turning blocks could be bent or jammed also.
The blocks are only available in the UK.
Good Luck!

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Sealing hull to deck gaps
Message-ID: <B17814EF-DA97-40DF-9546-AAC0967BCE65@gmail.com>

I?ve found that there are visible gaps in the hull to deck joint of my boat, which allow some water to intrude when the boat heels a lot.   My mechanic suggested using silicone caulking to seal these areas but I?ve frequently read that silicone should be avoided except for things like port lights and hatches.   Do you have any advice or experience with this issue?

Thanks,

Yea - your seat drains are clogged and the rain water seeks the path of least resistance - it  spills over the edge of the Laz opening under the cover and into the pit.

thoes drains. I keep one such brush IN my Laz.

From Practical Sailor:

Silicone caulk is notorious for wreaking havoc with the adhesion of
sealants and paint. In fact, you will probably find that new silicone
bedding does not bond well to surfaces that have been supposedly scrubbed
clean. The trouble is that old silicone can be deeply embedded in the pores
of gelcoat and wood, invisible to the naked eye.

https://www.practical-sailor.com/boat-maintenance/ps-tests-adhesive-removers

and

Many companies, including Pettit?who have launched a new line of caulks,
<https://pettitpaint.com/products/sealants-adhesives/>offer new
UV-resistant and paintable polyether blends that can be used in lieu of
silicone, which has a reputation of leaving behind invisible residue that
can interfere with the adhesion of subsequent coatings of paint or varnish
on the bedded fitting, or even on the adjacent surfaces. If you have to
remove silicone or remove stubbornly adhered polyurethane caulk like 3M
5200, check out our Practical Sailor?s test of adhesive removers
<https://www.practical-sailor.com/boat-maintenance/ps-tests-adhesive-removers>
.

https://www.practical-sailor.com/blog/the-right-caulk-for-your-boat

I can confirm from experience that it can be nearly impossible to get
anything to seal to surfaces that were previously exposed to silicone
caulk. I've had to use a digester solution to remove the silicone from the
gelcoat.

I use a piece of Galvanized Wire about 2? long that lives in the laz as well. 
I?ve opened the laz a number of times to find my fenders awash.

I had that with the Carol Lee 2 but only on the trailer - never on the
water.  The bow sits lower on the water avoiding the problem.  My yard was
sloped which added to the "stern low" problem.  I would raise the tongue
with a floor jack and take the trailer jack up into the towing position
then drop the trailer tongue to the ground thereby lowering the bow and
avoiding the flooded lazerette.
