[Rhodes22-list] Stan - Another Plug For The Rhodes 22

[stan]

1.    sails in those days were not Doyle and cut different and may be the 
issue

2.    the boom should be slightly to starboard and slightly below horizontal 
for easiest working

3.    the bearing system should work so freely that the furling tube does 
not want to tend to bend so as to create the two fat people trying to get 
through a door at the same time syndrome.   The new bearing systems are much 
different than in 84.

The system should work easily, per reports from owners.  This is why some 
people go for recycled or new Rhodes.

Call me from a cell phone at the boat to best describe the symptoms. 
Whatever is being done wrong, or is wrong, is fixable.
