[Rhodes22-list] Winter storage-Sail removal

[ALICE WEISZ]

Hi.  I also took the boat out of the water my first season but then found out that it's not necessary as long as your marina has bubblers to keep ice from forming around the hull.  I'm near you on Kent Island, MD.

  We live in Lewes, Delaware and this is also our first season of sailing. 
  We are planning on taking our boat out the end of October, maybe the first
  or second week of November.  After discussing what to do with our sails
  with Stan and Elton, they recommended if possible just to leave sails and
  mast up during winter.  This will be the easiest way for us because we do
  not have the mast hoist to take everything down.

  > Hello,
  > I am making plans to haul out my Rhodes 22 for winter storage, after my
  first season of enjoying it.  I am rigged with roller reefing of the jib
  and in-mast furling of the mainsail.  Does anyone know a relatively easy
  way to remove the genoa and mainsail, and to reinstall them, without
  lowering the mast?
