On Stan's suggestion, I added a compression post.  Sailing Inc. later
confirmed my work with Stan.  They also stiffened the cockpit seats and the
attachment of the seats to the bulkheads at both ends.

You have to realize the R22 is ideal for cruising with adults that weigh
less than 200# each.  I weigh a little more than 200#, although I keep
trying not to.  Plus, I often go out with even bigger guys who like to race
and the rougher the better.
