[Rhodes22-list] ballast

[The Rhodes 22 Email List]

Graham,

Stan has suggested added ballast be installed forward of the mast.

My boat has 120#s of water in the tank and two batteries, an additional 110
#s
located forward of the head area. I also store my anchor,25 ft. of chain
and 300 ft.
of rode in a bag that I store as far forward as it will go in the bow. If I
were to add additional ballast I think under the flooring of the head would
be the lowest point
and the easiest for me to install. Let me know what works for you. I am not
into reinventing the wheel if it can be avoided.
