[Rhodes22-list] Colorado Sea Scouts dba Esther Ann Horwitz, 2nd Mate - Reply with other information

Wed Jul 23 20:27:02 EDT 2008

Dear over 21 Esther,
                            I had a '76 Rhodes for many years and it had
about a 8 foot piece of wire which was attacher to each of the stearn chain
plates.  There was a block that could travel along the length of the wire
and since there was slack the whole arrangment was above the tiller.  The
block was then attached to a "fiddle W/becket and adj. cam" (see the piece
of hardware on page 1196 of the current West marine cataloge modle  876 in
foto and model # 7599921.  There was an additional single block at the end
of the boom to complete the mainsheet controlls.  Unfortunatly, I don't have
any pictures as my current  Rhodes has a bar for a travler rather than the
old wire system.  Hope this helps

> Thanks for your help.? Just want all of you to not worry, I am well over
21 (wish I wasn't).? I am one of the adult leaders for the Ship.? I still
haven't seen anything yet that makes sense to me on how the traveler that
comes of the boom attaches to the boat.? There are two shrouds(?) coming off
the aft part of the boom but if attached to the stern?they interfere with
steering,?there doesn't seem to be anyplace to? attach them to that makes
sense.??
