John,
My old paper copy did not have color pictures. What a bummer.
The Rhodes 22 with the IMF has an open sheave in the masthead. That allows
for a topping lift that holds the weight of a spinnaker pole so that the
poles weight does not interfere with setting it. My boat is equipped with a
block about two thirds the way up. If you are going to leave a line in the
sheave all the time, make sure that it is a UV resistant one. Just ask
Captain Rummy how well an old line works after exposure to UV over time.
