If you have never been to Tampa bay, A nice quick stop is at beer can
Island.  Phil and I had gone there on a Pontoon a couple years ago from Mc
Dill Airbase.  There is a dock there you can pull up to.  It looks very
similar To the one in the movie Castaway with Tom Hanks.  It is not very
large and you can walk around its perimeter in about 15-20 mins.  I walked
along the Beach a few feet out into the water and had some shrimp scurry
across my toes.

If I recall from the photos, she was over on the port side.  So not  
likely to be the sink drain, since that's on the starboard side (for  
most of us anyway) and would have been well above the waterline when  
listing to port.

Looks to me as if it is all the way down.

Mike,

Sounds like a good trip.  Please post your trip log when you return.  Not a
real log, just what you did, where you sailed and how were the anchorages,
marinas, restaurants, bars and beaches along the way.  We are considering
going to the Tampa area for an R-22 trailersailing trip as it is only 5
hours drive from us, but we always drive past there and go to Punta Gorda
further south.  Let me know how it goes and how it is to sail around there.

Thanks and good luck.

Bob:

Thanks, I was hoping someone would tell me the board is only half way down
and that by lowering it all the way I would improve my ability to point
higher into the wind.  Suppose I just need to learn to adjust my sails
better.  I seem to only be able to come to within about 50-60 degrees of the
apparent wind when beating.  Enclosed is a trip I recorded last year on my
iphone and then imported to cad in order to do a crude set of measurements. 
The average angle off the wind for the trip is about 54 degrees.  According
to Wikipedia, see page two of the enclosed pdf file, that?s about average
for a shallow draft boat.  At least it's better than 90 degrees for a square
rigger; otherwise we would never get anywhere.

Chris,

Several years ago I measured 45 degrees in a 12 knot wind, serious chop,
full main pulled tight with the traveler centered, board down, boom down,
hands-free with the tiller locked.  The Genoa sheets were run across the
cabin top between the inside shrouds and mast so the headsail was pulled
tight to almost 100%.

I'm certainly no expert but to get the Genoa tight enough for good pointing
it seems like you need to run the sheets as close to the inside as possible.

I frequently run them between the inside and outside shrouds across the deck
and am guessing that I'm still not hitting 50 degrees into the wind.  Having
the board down only helps until your sails start luffing.

I'd love to hear some other opinions on this.  It wouldn't be the first time
I've been wrong on my sailing advice. :)

Chris,

I don't see your turning block.  Mine is always exposed when my boat is on
the lift
--handy for inspecting.  So unless the picture just doesn't show the block,
I would say you need to move your stop knot a bit down the hauling line.

Derek,

Sorry, I misread your question.  The blue is pretty pale.

Bob ... will do.  And as much as we're looking forward to having the 323 to
play with; I envy you the opportunity to ply those waters in an R22. 
Judging from some of the sounding's, you'll have less to "sweat" than we
will with the 323 as we pick our way into the anchorage behind De Soto
point.  Not to worry, we'll get Muireann down there sooner or later; our son
is at USF for the next few years.  If we had three more days, we'd be towing
Muireann down there for sure, but we're a little jammed up for time and the
Mooney is whispering "choose me".

What turning block? Is it on the board itself? I know there are a lot 
variations. Ours is a direct lift. No blocks.

Hey Stan,
	Don't forget my similar experience when my 1st Rhodes (76) was
turned turtle and the mast driven into the mud.  All I did was pull the
cleaves pins and tabernacle bolt and voila' she rolled over like a cheap uh,
uh, I need another analogy here.  Anyway, It took two frantic guys with 5
gallon buckets a very short time to have her pretty much empty of water.
The boat with standard mast floated well above the gunnels as I remember so
bailing wasn't a problem.

Thanks all for the feedback but I am still flying blind here because I am 
still missing the answer as to whether any of the 6 boats were completely 
submerged so that the deck top was under water.  I had asked that question 
to get an idea of water depth.  From what I am hearing, the Rhodes was never

completely submerged.   Were any others?

If so, that would indicate deep water and that since the Rhodes deck was 
still above water, the floatation had done its job.  If all boats had their 
decks above water that would indicate shallow depth and therefore no 
positive indication of successful floatation since the boats were sitting on

the bottom, not able to go down far enough to get to the flotation level.

I am interested in getting the hard facts because it is very expensive for 
us to conduct such tests and so we only did it once and those photos showed 
that the floatation took over when the water lever went just above the 
cockpit seat level.   We would be satisfied if the water level reaches the 
cabin roof before floatation is effective.  In the only report I recall 
hearing from an owner, attorney Paul Clevenger said that a rouge wave lifted

his boat and put it back in the water upside down and it floated and they 
disconnected the mast and were able to right it.

Stan:

I stopped by the marina on Saturday to see the Rhodes but she was already up
so do not know. I bet you that they got her away from the dock, tugged her
upright and pumped her out.

Dave,

I have not had a clear picture of what happened.   Were all boats completely

under water or were parts of the decks (other than the masts) still above 
water level?

thanks but I have given up on my analysis since after three tries I can 
still not get an answer to water depth with my question of whether any of 
the 6 boats were under water.

thanks CC - but with no indication of water depth I still can't tell if the 
boat is sitting on the bottom or if the floatation has succeeded in keeping 
the boat afloat even with all that flooding.

Stan,

I think Mark did answer your question.

My boat is at the Washington Sailing Marina and it did not go down.  I asked
the guys there about the storm-pushing-the-water-out theory, and they
assured me that did not happen. They report that all of the boats that sank
were overloaded with wet snow, began listing to one side, took on water and
went down.

Mark P.

I couldn't find the photos on your website of the flotation test.  Did you
do it with the mast installed?  Was it an IMF with Sail?  From the photo of
the boat at WSM it looks like after she took on water and flooded the
cockpit, the weight of the mast cause a 90 degree roll.  I suspect that they
righted her and were then able to bail/pump her out.

Hank

Assuming this is the right marina, you could always call them. If you 
can talk to the manager or dockmaster, I'm sure she or she will know 
what slip the R22 was in and what the depth is at that slip.

I feel like Judge Judy - no one is answering my question of whether the 
water at those slips is deep enough so that a down boat would be under 
water.  ( I never asked and had no interest in the water in and out theory).

I thought it was a simple question that would establish if a boat went down 
no further because it was sitting on the bottom or it went down no further 
because it was being supported at that level by floatation.

Stan,

Maybe nobody knows for sure.  Give the Marina a call and ask them.
