[Rhodes22-list] Winter storage

[Joe Camp]

Hi Renaldo;

I just cover the boat itself, below the mast on the crutch and bow pulpit, then wrap the mast with plastic and bungees.  It all depends on the weather and where you have it stored.  Last year, I was in the middle of a storage yard away from all bad things, and I didn't even cover it.  I have a buddy who has used just a tarp for twenty-eight years, and the boat has done very well...  And it's not even a Rhodes.

>Would like advice on winter storage for my Rhodes.  Is it okay to          shrinkwrap the boat with the mast up?  Should I unstep the          mast? or take the genny headsail off for storage?  Thanks.
