The compression post is what supports the mast, preventing it from crashing through the deck into the cabin.

Masts are either deck-stepped, or keel-stepped. Those that keel-stepped come through the deck (cabin top) and rest on the keel. That is supporting the downward pressure of the mast.

Those that are deck-stepped need something under the deck to support that downward pressure. That's tof the compression post. 

You need one on your Rhodes-22, trust me.

Bob,
 
I have not posted any pictures yet.
 
What is the compression post? I do not think that my boat has such a thing.
