[Rhodes22-list] Russell's upright problem

[ed kroposki]

Russ:

 

    Ask Stan if any other boat uses an on boat hoist or do they all use
Trailer mounted systems, al la Com Pac.  Let us see, how about a hot air
balloon with remote control?  Maybe a bigger boat with a counter weighted
crane.

    How many side stays does the boat have?  Six?  That is what makes the
R22 work.  Maybe you need to add some Stays or change the locations, at
least while raising and lower the mast.

    Where is Roger when you need mechanical advantage?  Dual Gin poles?
Bilateral or dual pulling lines?  That is a single winch with two four foot
arms that pull from the outside?  Single winch with two arms with turning
blocks to get balanced dual outside pull?  Two horizontal gin poles?

    Jerry, Slim and Todd we need a to get Russell an on boat mast crane.
Throw some wood on the fire.  Stan has boats to make; we need to give the
maestro a workable idea.

Boat is in a slip, no trailer yet but the hoist system is ala R22,

butdesign does not exactly work with the 26.  Elton & Stan are aware and are

working the problem, alaw, a wolution.
