Hi John,

Thanks for the info.  If anyone does have a picture of the old setup with the main sheet set up with the block and lines across the transom, it would be appreciated.  This is such a great forum.  Thanks again.

Matt

Hi Matt,

Welcome to the Rhodes list and your new, old boat!

In its early years, the Rhodes 22 was not equipped with a traveler,  
but used a line running across the transom to attach the main sheet.   
Somebody, somewhere had found some old photos of this setup and that's  
probably what you need.  But I can't find them on the website, so I'm  
guessing they came from someplace else.  Hopefully this message will  
job some memories and we'll dig up the links again.

Cheers!
John Lock
