[Rhodes22-list] Pat with Japanesse Rhodes

Pat:
	Do you have a digital camera.  This list accepts posts with jpg
picture attachments.  You can point the camera at the question, click and
download to your computer.  Ask questions with pictures one a time.  Takes
less bandwidth for those on dial service.
	Did you look at pictures on web site?  Have you fully explored the
Web site?  Look at: http://www.rhodes22.org/rhodes/tech.html  and use the
index to go to:   http://www.geocities.com/blew_skies/topics.html#mast
	Commodore Rummy has detailed pictures of how all the blocks,
attachments, turning points are supposed to be.  Instead of getting with
Michael or Will and adding them to the web site, he posts them occasionally
when questions arise.  If you posted a picture of your question, he probably
has a picture of the correct way to rig.  He just wants you to send him a
bottle of Mt. Gay rum.
	There is another "Rip-van-Rhodes" lurking out there.  I am waiting
for 'Ranger' to return.  It is neatly bubble wrapped in Columbia, South
Carolina awaiting the return of its skipper.  Has the good ranger maintained
email contact with anybody on the list?

Addendum:  Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when they know
there is not enough?

Welcome Back Puentes,
                                        I'll let the techno guys with the
pictures explain the rigging but just wanted to say how intriguing the
concepts of a "Rip-van-Rhodes" is.  Do tell us more.  Also where are you
located?  There must be a Rhodie near by!

> Dear Rhodes Community: We bought our Rhodes new in 1991, used it once and
moved out of the country (China and Japan). The boat was wrapped and stored
in a marina. We just came back and unwrapped it, rigged it and relaunched it
(actually our first launch, as when we just got it, was delivered), so we
never had the opportunity to put it together until now. It took us a few
hours to figure out how all went together, but finally did it. Except for
one problem: we cannot figure out how does the main sail gets rigged.  We
have a self furling innermast sail. The boom is in place and held by the
boom vang (I hope I am using the right terminology). Then there is a 3/8
line attached to a block at the end of the boom with 2 additional blocks.
How is the sail rigged to the boom?
