[Rhodes22-list] Seaward 26RK

[RUSSELL MILLER]

ok, so for those of us that have signed uo with Elton:

What did we buy buy?  what options lets compare notes since it is still not too late for any of us to make changes.  I know the list is pretty long but maybe one of us could set it up with excell, I don't have time tonight but it would be interesting.  Like the ref points s./b 2 with grommets in the sail for sail ties for each reef.  Elton's demo boat has one reef point but no way to harness the sail, it becomes a flopp'in scroundrel, hard/impossible to control on the boom.  We were oot in what Elton was 18+ knots, sailed wih jib alone and wrestled with the main.

PS for u gas engine converts - never ever let your diesel run out of fuel.  Getting it going again is one of your worst nightmares - very difficult to blled the system, rilters lines, and jets of ALL AIR!!!!
