[Rhodes22-list] Todd's rhodes schematics

[ed kroposki]

Todd, 
	What are you doing up at 2:30 AM making detailed drawings of
sailboats?  You have the same work ethic as Stan who can be found working in
the plant at 3AM trying to make something work better.  
	In my trips to Edenton, I have never seen Stan whip out a set of
blueprints for the R 22.  What Roger has failed to appreciate is just how
much of the knowledge base about the Rhodes 22 is in Stan's head.  You may
have created the only existing set.  If I had your talent I would be
enrolled in http://www.westlawn.org/.
	The United Negro College Fund has solicited funds for years with the
concept that 'a mind should not wasted'.  This principle does not only apply
to black people.  At your age, I encourage you to find a way to further
develop the talents that you have demonstrated.

Hank, Roger, 

  I spent a couple of hours working on the boat today and had a 
chance to look more closely at the structures in the cabin. I have 
ammended my drawings to show the exact layout in my 1977 R22. 

   The stringer I had labeled #1 actually runs from the rear 
bulkhead (C) to the forward bulkhead (A). I did not remove the 
galley base shelf, but made a guess how the forward end of stringer 
#2 should look. The galley base shelf (and the top of stringer #2) 
is about 3/4" to 1" higher than the raised floor section under the 
porta-potty. There are cleats on bulkheads A and B to support the 
raised floor section flush with the top of bulkhead B. I have made 
a guess that the forward end of stringer 2 is cut down to support 
the starboard end of the raised floor. (if not, then it should be) 

   It is 22-3/4" from the bottom of the companionway opening to the 
top of the cabin main floor. I have made another drawing with 
dimensions locating the stringers and bulheads referenced to an 
imaginary centerline and the rear cabin bulkhead C. After leveling the boat
according to Bob Skinner's method using the cockpit seats, these drawings
should
be a pretty good guide.

   Before I start getting negative feedback---I made these 
drawings for the sole purpose of helping someone rebuild an 
interior which they have never seen. These drawings are not to be 
used for any other purpose.

Todd
