I can't help with Tony's problem, but this is a good example for having a marine surveyor survey a boat prior to purchase.Joe DempseySV RespiteDeltaville, VASent via the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

Tony who did you buy the boat from? What year is it? What did u pay for It?  Do you have a trailer?I’m in NC and might be able to help.  I have 4 R22’s, one in the water, one on my boat ramp and two for parts.TksJohn609-385-7039Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhoneOn Sunday, June 19, 2022, 1:54 PM, Tony Jonaitis via Rhodes22-list <rhodes22-list at rhodes22.org> wrote: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
