I have hashtaged many pictures on Instagram/FB over the years. 

It?s a great way to see pictures from all over. I?m not a big social media guy, but I enjoy Instagram/FB platforms for exchanging pictures and information about my boat much better than searching through an email list. 

Cheers,

The reason auto companies run pictured ads ,is not to sell you a car, but
to make you satisfied about your purchase decision.

I'm thinking of attending the Annapolis show for a day, for the first time.  Can anyone give me a bit of advice about how to plan for this?  In particular, should I make a hotel reservation now? And where would be best?  Thanks.

Message-ID: <917E7212-776A-4B29-B5FB-983C8D8E5199@gmail.com>

I have a GB roller furling jib system that has issues.  

Issue 1:  The furling tube is attached to the forestay by plastic sections connected by #8 x7/8? stainless steel screws.  (#8 is an est).  The screws are backing out, allowing the jib to slip out of the track.  I am going to replace the screws. For anyone with experience with this, would it be best to replace existing screws with like new screws, replace the screws with the same size, but 1? long, or replace screws with the next larger size and he same 7/8? length.   

Issue 2:  When setting the jib, the fork which guides the furling line out of the line guard  (lower cylinder around which the line wraps) tries to wrap around the line guard thereby making setting or furling the  jib virtually impossible unless you head up to the bow and manually unwrap the line and fork.  Any ideas?

had a blast out yesterday afternoon. In short order, I?ve perfected the

an occasional photo to post later or waive to bikini clad ladies who are

Buy a new furling system
While the original is very creative it is a pain to dissemble and
reassemble and hard to repair

For what it is worth I replaces my ancient Cruising Design furling system with the Schafer Snap Furl. While I am quite satisfied with this system I have no experience with any of the others to draw comparisons with.

I have a Harken Unit 0 roller furler.  I?ve had it ~25 years with zero issues.  It has upper and lower swivels and I had a 150% Genoa made with a foam luff pad to take advantage of the swivels.   I?m pretty happy with my Harken.

Is there anyone near Fort Lauderdale with a Rhodes 22? My wife and I want to
see one before we start traveling too far to look for boats that are for
sale. I?ll buy you lunch if we can see your boat ?

Bill, 
I have a Rhodes 22 sitting on a trailer in my back yard. I live about 100 miles from you in Fort Pierce. I bought a bigger boat two years ago and I haven?t used the Rhodes since then. My wife is nagging me to sell it but I've been procrastinating. My boat is an older 1978, but most of the typical issues have already been repaired such as compression post, centerboard trunk and centerboard, electrical system totally redone, all delamination issues repaired with biaxial and epoxy resin. Main sail replaced in 2016. Jib is old but serviceable. Roller furling system replaced in 2015. Engine is a 2013 9.8 tohatsu long shaft, bouth in 2014. Trailer was replaced in 2016, purchased as a refurb from general boats.

Regards,
Gary

Bill,  I have a 1995 Rhodes 22 which has been renovated twice by General
Boats, once in 2004 when I bought it, and again in 2016.  She is in her slip
on Causeway Island (Hutchinson Island) in Fort Pierce.

If you want to make the trip up [100 miles?], let me know.

Message-ID: <1562217275258-0.post@n5.nabble.com>

Hi, We just purchased a Rhodes 22 (1988, refurbed in 2008).  Unfortunately,
the previous owner lost some of the General Boat furler parts while
replacing the broken stay and having a smaller Genoa made.  All we have is
the long metal pole with the open rope drum on the bottom of it (picture
attached below).  I sent a some emails to GB a couple of weeks ago but
understandably they have not been returned.  I designed a part for the top
of the pole that I think will work well but it makes sense to see what the
design is supposed to be plus how the furler is rigged with a sail.  Does
anyone have pictures they could send me showing the parts and how the GB
furler is rigged?  Even better if someone has upgraded their furler and
wants to sell some parts.

<http://rhodes-22.1065344.n5.nabble.com/file/t911/Rope_Drum_small.jpg> 

Thanks and thanks for all of the useful information posted on this site.

Ken

Perhaps this is an older GB furler or a very early CDI design.  Attached is
the top of the pole showing the channel for the sail luff.

July 4th  Sitting here in Messina waiting for the bar's ice machine to
slowly make another kilo of ice for the box.  So things came together and I
have attached (I hope) a PDF which should be easier to open for a lot of
readers.  Mike M. will have to clear it because of the size of the document
I think.  Thanks Mike.  Anyway, part 1 is the intro to the whole trip and
covers the first few days.  Though I posted this a couple of years ago,
I've also put a link here for anyone interested the original trip that I
made down the Italian coast 50 years ago.  It really was what got me
started sailing.  So enjoy part 1, I promise part 2 will come
along....sometime.

Ken,

The first picture you sent looks to me like a headsail furler, but the second picture looks like the mainsail furler (or pole - whatever it?s called).

I am attaching pictures of my mainsail furler for reference.

Alexis

Hi Alexis,

The second picture is just the top of the pole that is in the first picture. 
Your pole looks the same as mine.  Pretty simple how the top of your sail is
attached.  The bottom looks different - does that block portion remain
stationary while the rest spins?  What brand is yours?

Thanks,

Ken

Hi Ken,

I don?t know what brand mine is. I believe this is what General Boats has been using at least in the past 10-15 years (my boat was refurbished in 2007).

The black block is what attaches to the cabin top to allow it to be raised.

Peter has a video about replacing the furling line, and it gives a good view over the furling system: https://youtu.be/MH7hYJnoNpM

The furler from your picture really keeps me curious. It looks much bigger than what would fit inside the mast, but it might just be an optical illusion!

Alexis

Ah, ok, this makes a lot more sense for the drum!

I am still surprised the pole/tube is metal though. Mine is plastic and flexible. You can see it in the middle of the picture I?m attaching here.

I don?t have close-ups though, sorry.

Alexis

The cdi furler has flexible foil that includes a slot for the sail and a slot for the halyard.  The GB furler has a metal tube.

Ah, ok, this makes a lot more sense for the drum!

I am still surprised the pole/tube is metal though. Mine is plastic and flexible. You can see it in the middle of the picture I?m attaching here.

I don?t have close-ups though, sorry.

Hi Alexis,

Sorry, I am confusing you. I am talking about the Jib Furler, not the In Mast Furler for the main sail. I edited my first post (title and content) to clarify. My apologies. Your pictures make more sense to me now.

I see. I didn?t know that. It all makes sense to me now. So, yes, I have a CDI furler.

The cdi furler has flexible foil that includes a slot for the sail and a slot for the halyard. The GB furler has a metal tube.

Just to be clear, the CDI furler and GBI furler is for the jib.  The Main has a custom GB furler.

Hi all,

    went out this morning intending to remove the jib in order to replace some screws in the GB furling tube and realized I wasn?t sure how to completely remove the headsail, never having done it.    the halyard does not appear long enough to lower the entire sail.  What am I missing?

You need to attach a temporary line to extend the halyard

Will adding a temp line with a knot allow the line to extend through the device at the top of the headsail.  Also, does the CDI furler require any modification to the headstay?

Do you have pictures of both ends of your furler?

The CDI furler flexible foil should be cut to size so you should be able to use the forestay.

Will adding a temp line with a knot allow the line to extend through the device at the top of the headsail.  Also, does the CDI furler require any modification to the headstay?

Pix attached.  This is a self contained system, with the halyard attached to the furling drum and running up to a block at the top of the headsail then back down to the drum.  Never had one like this my others had the halyard going thru the top of the mast and securing lower on the mast.

July 4th  Sitting here in Messina waiting for the bar's ice machine to
slowly make another kilo of ice for the box.  So things came together and I
have attached (I hope) a PDF which should be easier to open for a lot of
readers.  Mike M. will have to clear it because of the size of the document
I think.  Thanks Mike.  Anyway, part 1 is the intro to the whole trip and
covers the first few days.  Though I posted this a couple of years ago,
I've also put a link here for anyone interested the original trip that I
made down the Italian coast 50 years ago.  It really was what got me
started sailing.  So enjoy part 1, I promise part 2 will come
along....sometime.

Hi Ken (and everyone),
Attached are some photos of the top and the bottom of the GBI furler 
from our R22 which was recycled by GB in 1998.

We have since sold the boat with a Schaefer furler and this GBI furler 
is available free to anyone who wants to come to the Eastern Shore of 
Maryland and pick it up - all 26+ feet of it. It's a bit grubby but the 
extrusion is in good condition as are the starboard parts.

We tried to give it to Stan but could never arrange transportation.

There are 6 pictures here. Don't know if the email server will handle 
them all.

I will add that this GBI furler, while it looks different from Ken's, is 
complete. There were several variations of the furler before GB went to 
the CDI furler. The GB furler was bulletproof. I expect the only reason 
a switch was made was either difficulty getting the extrusion or because 
of customer demand for a furler that would allow you to remove the 
headsail without lowering the mast.

Biminis seem to be sold based on the length and width of the covered area, and the vertical height of the top above the attachment point.

Mine is 69? long by 82? wide by 38? high at the side.  the height at the center would be a few inches more.

Hi Mary,

Your furler looks exactly like mine I think except the bottom of the rope
drum is disconnected on yours and I am missing the top piece.

Was the top of the sail just screwed to the pole using a metal loop or like
on another design where they just used a screw (with washer) going through
the sail grommet into the pole?

Mine has a D-Ring installed above the rope drum.  I see screw holes above
yours as well.  I am assuming the bottom of the sail is attached to the
d-ring on mine with rope or hardware.  Depending upon the length of the
sail, I could see using these to set the tension.  Does this sound correct?

I assume the width of the disk is to limit the height the tube can rise and
to have a soft surface if it hits against the mast.  Yours is 2 piece.  I am
not sure what the advantage of that is since hardware can not pass through
the lower rope drum.  Though it would allow one to more easily replace the
bushing with a  split bushing when it is worn down.   When I make it, I
might drill large holes through mine to reduce weight up there.  That would
be stronger and easier than trying to hollow it out.  With the pole 1"
diameter, it looks like your disk is 3" diameter.

Definitely making progress.  Thank you Mary and everyone else!

Ken

Hi Bob,

I did not see any pictures attached so it is hard for me to tell what is
going on.  Without seeing it, I can not say if a longer screw will start
getting too close to the wire.  If it looks like that might be an issue, I
would try for the next larger size.  Be careful if you have to drill the
hole larger - go in small steps in drill size doing a test fit each time so
as to not end up having a loose screw again.

Are you keeping tension on the sheet as you furl the jib and visa versa as
you unfurl?

Ken

Yes the bottom of the drum is disconnected. I don't recall if there were 
screws holding the bottom on or not. The tube seated in the depression 
and the furling line went through a hole in the base and was knotted to 
hold the line there.

I was thinking there was just a screw going through a webbing tab sewn 
to the sail and then screwed into the tube but? there are two holes in 
the tube top and bottom so there may have been a u-shaped tang or small 
padeye threaded through and webbing strap and the padeye screwed to the 
tube. It was about 15 years ago that we last used it and I'm just not sure.

Noting the amount of time that has passed, yes it sounds correct.

I don't recall the the furler being able to rise on the headstay but I 
don't recall why it couldn't

The upper piece is in two parts and is not quite round more like a 
square rounded off unevenly. It is 3 1/8 across one way and 3 1/4 the 
other . The diagonals are about 3 1/2 but one is less than the other.

Glad this was of some help

Mary, I am impressed - you even have dimensions!!!

I was just talking to the sailmaker.  His English is orders of magnitude
better than any Italian I could ever try to do but the communication was
difficult.  I wanted to talk to him about adding luff foam and UV
protection.  He could not understand my explaining the luff foam to improve
shape when partially furled.  So I will wait to see how we like it without
it and get it added over here if necessary.  However, he did understand my
discussion that the light weight insignia material might be better than
sunbrella.  But he needs to know which side of the sail to put it on.  I do
not know which way the sail furls.  I think the furling sheet went to the
starboard side of the boat - does that sound correct?  If so, then the sail
should be protected on that side.

Yikes, I got that reversed, I think (I am incapable of visualizing things). 
It will furl clockwise so the port side needs to be protected.

Yes ours went to starboard. The eyes for the furling line are there and 
it went to cam cleat on the cabin top.

Thanks Mary Lou,
It was written long ago and ?lost?. It discovered in my late mother?s as a
hand written, typed journal and an envelope of negatives. I just
transcribed the info but did very little editing. I left in a lot of the
awkward grammar and some of the misspellings. I thought it was more
authentic that way. I think we found it about 16 years ago. Don?t feel like
you have to read the whole thing. Enjoy!  Here is a view from the boat a
short time ago. The cloud is from a minor eruption/venting of 11,000 ft
Etna. Life on a boat rocks, doesent?

Chris
Love the photo.

I'm very glad you found the earlier account and transcribed it. I will 
read the whole thing as I am thoroughly enjoying it. Even pulled up a 
map of Italy as my knowledge of Italian geography is sorely lacking. You 
were a good writer then and now.

Thanks
Mary Lou

 Hello,

I?m interested in buying a Rhodes 22, but cannot find one closer than Illinois for sale. Is there anyone in the Wilmington area with a R22 who could let me see one in person and maybe talk to you about sailing and launching one from a ramp?

Thanks,

Hello,

I?m interested in buying a Rhodes 22, but cannot find one closer than Illinois for sale. Is there anyone in the Wilmington area with a R22 who could let me see one in person and maybe talk to you about sailing and launching one from a ramp?

Thanks,

Hi George. My R22 lives on the trailer and I sail at least a few times a
month, usually at some new and unfamiliar ramp. I?m not in the Wilmington
area, but I?d be happy to answer any questions you might have about rigging
at a ramp as well as launching and recovering.

Hey Chris...I hope you are safely tucked in somewhere along the southern
Italian coast. Pretty nasty weather forecast for your area over the week
end.

Message-ID: <CA+qybHEh3EBMrxvg26pocb21htBu53=aquB4-9sb6fy8yZUL9Q@mail.gmail.com>

I am retrofitting LaRousette, a non General Boats R22 build, with a used
R22 Traveller .  The backstays currently don't support the main sheet block
assembly.  That assembly ties in to the backstay connectors and consists of
the main sheet block rolling along a stainless wire.  The tubular unit I
hope to install has tube end fittings which terminate in a ring.  From
photos I glean that typical Traveller tube has a notch cut out being
supported by a crimped ferrule on each backstay.  If that's the right way,
how is chafing of the backstay strands eliminated.  This is sharp metal
againt stainless strands.  Would love some list advice on this one please.

Hi there,

I don?t understand how my traveler is supposed to work / be used. Can someone help me?

I am attaching a picture. I feel like it?s twister or upside-down.

Thanks,

Yes a bit of wind on the crossing frommarina Ciro to Gallipoli. Should be
Ok. Unless the forecast changes we will go. It is only 55nm. Today we have
a long day, 75 nm. A 45 nm from Sicily to Capo spartavento then an
additional 30 to a safe harbor at Rocelle Ionica. I think I?ll include a
picture a day for a more current feel. Today, is crossing to Calabria, 5:30

Thanks to those who responded to my post.

 I actually visited Stan at the plant a couple of weeks ago, but he didn?t
have any boats within my budget. Since then I?ve found a great boat fairly
close to Wilmington which I plan to purchase.

Hi Chris and Alice,
I enjoyed your write up, the maps, and the pictures comparing now and fifty years ago.? I agree about the people comments as the most important part of the voyage.? But oh is it hard not to want to have the flare of my hull parting Mediterranean?waters and listening for the Sirens call.? I did heed the call of the Sirens Pub in Port Townsend.? Safe journey.? How is Alice's eye?? Joe Riley, Second Wind, Athens GA

Best way to understand it is to play with it and see what it does to the 
mainsail shape and how the boat responds.
 From the FAQ on the Rhodes22.org site (it was a paraphrase of a Sail 
Magazine article):

  * Light air - traveler car to windward, mainsheet eased to allow twist
  * Medium air - traveler slightly above centerline
  * Heavy air - traveler car eased, mainsheet tight

Alex,

Your traveler is not upside down; but, the control lines have some twists in them.  Each part of the tackle should run fairly to the next block or the clam cleat.

Alex,

Your traveler is not upside down; but, the control lines have some twists in them. Each part of the tackle should run fairly to the next block or the clam cleat.

Hey Joe,
               Nice to read your comments. Another philosophy of cruising
gem is is always heed the call of the Sirens Pub....or any pub!   As for
sailing the Med,   Like every anchorage you enter, one should have an exit
plan. Ours is in 2 or 3 years we will offer Enosis up for sale for around
7K with a couple of weeks of ?cruising in the Med? instruction aboard on
that last September ( or sooner). This would be to any Rhodie or group of
Rhodies interested in their own Odyssey.

Rhodes 22 History (http://www.rhodes22.org/blew_skies/history.html) says that the IMF was introduced in the early 80's.  Page 9 of the sales literature from my original 1981 R22 purchase (http://www.rhodes22.org/pipermail/rhodes22-list/attachments/20070918/b278663f/attachment.pdf) shows the option for the "Inner Mast Furling with the R-22 Sally-Sail Main" at $1,995.  I do not think that it was a "deliverable item" when I purchased my '81.  My 1991 R22 included IMF with a 2nd generation main and outhaul car.

There is a brief history in the FAQ on the owner's site. At the time 
someone speculated that IMF was introduced in the 1980s.
http://rhodes22.org/blew_skies/history.html

Our boat was a 1991 and I always thought IMF predated her. by several 
years, so maybe mid-to late 80s?

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner - or at least a well narrowed down 
time frame.
To summarize:
1981 advertised but not quite available yet at least not when Mike 
purchased his 1981.
1983 Chris Geankopolis purchased ENOSIS with IMF

Note that not all boats had IMF once it was introduced - it was always 
an option. I believe some recycled boats may have started life with 
standard and then when recycled became IMF and possibly vice versa.

The roller reef mainsail advertised in the early ?80s brochure pertains to a boom roller. It came on our 1984 continental. It never worked very well. I use the reef points and tie it down- old school.

Alex, It's somewhat of a Rubik's Cube. I'd suggest unpinning the ends and
remove the Main Sheet blocks from the traveler. Twist and rotate the
traveler bar until the lines are not twisted around the bar. They should all
hang free. The jam cleats will be on top when you re-attach to the main
sheet and boom.

When he refers to the Sally-Sail that's the in-Mast furling. Mike said 
his in-mast boat was 1983.

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] I Just Bought a Rhodes
Message-ID: <1563326669917-0.post@n5.nabble.com>

Well...at 73 I?m taking on a new challenge...I?m going to learn to sail. 

Yesterday I bought a 1986 R22 refurbished in 2010. My new sailing buddy whom
I bought the boat from took me out for a couple of hours sailing yesterday
and I loved it.

I know some may think it strange, but I met with Stan this morning in
Edenton asking many questions and I handed him a check for the Certificate
of Support. I?ve spent many hours researching the Rhodes list on all manner
of subjects including the C of S. It just seemed like the right thing to do
even though the future of General Boats is maybe uncertain. 

I?ll be keeping the boat in a boatyard on its trailer with the mast up
across from the launching ramps at Southport Marina in Southport NC. 

The boat doesn?t have a name on the side although I believe two owners back
it was called Nautisuarus based out of Chesapeake Bay. 

My name for the boat will be ?Knotty Lady?. I looked at a list of 27,000
names for actual boats and my choice of name didn?t show up...hopefully
there aren?t hundreds of other boats out there with the same name. 

The list is a great resource and I?m sure I?ve just scratched the surface
looking through all the different threads. 

I?m sure I will have many questions for the list as I learn to sail and get
to know my boat.

I don?t know about the Rubik?s cube, but I think I got this thanks to all the advice (and pic) I received! Thanks.

Speaking of traveler (traveller?), I noticed the boat points quite well to the wind with the main sheeted in / traveler to windward. Actually, the main looks good but the jib (115, I believe) is luffing earlier than the main. Do you have the same experience?

Alexis

Alex, It's somewhat of a Rubik's Cube. I'd suggest unpinning the ends and
remove the Main Sheet blocks from the traveler. Twist and rotate the
traveler bar until the lines are not twisted around the bar. They should all
hang free. The jam cleats will be on top when you re-attach to the main
sheet and boom.

Welcome!  At the age of 76 I have found that the Rhodes is a perfect boat
for those of us who like to sail as gentlemen. That said, she she is also
lively as can be if you are so inclined.

Congratulations George and welcome to 'da list.
I am sure you will have many hours and days of great sailing.
Consider a mooring or slip in the future as it will add a lot more use to
your schedule.
I am on a mooring and often go out after work for either a short sail or
just read, nap and relax on the boat.
Beats having to launch and retrieve all the time.

Great name George!  I hope she is enjoyable for you.  A very comfortable boat to sit it.  Best cockpit design in the industry.
Fair winds!

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] I Just Bought a Rhodes

Well...at 73 I?m taking on a new challenge...I?m going to learn to sail. 

Yesterday I bought a 1986 R22 refurbished in 2010. My new sailing buddy whom
I bought the boat from took me out for a couple of hours sailing yesterday
and I loved it.

I know some may think it strange, but I met with Stan this morning in
Edenton asking many questions and I handed him a check for the Certificate
of Support. I?ve spent many hours researching the Rhodes list on all manner
of subjects including the C of S. It just seemed like the right thing to do
even though the future of General Boats is maybe uncertain. 

I?ll be keeping the boat in a boatyard on its trailer with the mast up
across from the launching ramps at Southport Marina in Southport NC. 

The boat doesn?t have a name on the side although I believe two owners back
it was called Nautisuarus based out of Chesapeake Bay. 

My name for the boat will be ?Knotty Lady?. I looked at a list of 27,000
names for actual boats and my choice of name didn?t show up...hopefully
there aren?t hundreds of other boats out there with the same name. 

The list is a great resource and I?m sure I?ve just scratched the surface
looking through all the different threads. 

I?m sure I will have many questions for the list as I learn to sail and get
to know my boat.

Welcome to sailing, and the Rhodes 22, George.    Be warned, once the sailing
bug is caught escape is all but impossible.    Fortunately you will have no
desire to cure this disease.   Until we get past the worst of the summer
heat you might consider a Bimini (if not so equipped).   Once you get
comfortable with the boat you may add evening / night sailing to dodge the
worst of it.  I share Stephen?s thought that you will use the boat more the
easier it is.  You made a good start by figuring out dry storage, mast up.
at the ramp.   

It sounds like you have the prior owner for lessons?   Part of the thrill of
sailing to me is the ongoing growth.    I just picked up a solo docking
trick in a crosswind after a night sail with another boat.   After decades I
finally taught myself to splice a chain into a three strand anchor line this
spring.    There is always a new skill to learn.   There are always people
that know more to share them.   I hang out in another more hardcore forum
because the hardcore sailors take stuff for granted I didn?t know existed,
and I chose to live in a sailing backwater.   I?d  improve little and make
many expensive mistakes if left to my own devices.

By the way Richard, I am beginning to think the attachment of the low

some nasty thunderstorms for the next two days.  You jinxed us or I totally
missed the weather reports, or at least the right ones.

Currently in Corfu town moored below the fortress.  It has been a great

Message-ID: <1563817458269-0.post@n5.nabble.com>

In retrospect, we should have named Baby Steps, Nice Try.

This is the 4th season our beautiful blue Rhodes 22 has been sitting on its
trailer and the 5th season of not being used.  Is anyone looking for a 2007
(2013) including almost every conceivable General Boat option, short of
Stan?  Well, it hasn't been converted to electric but it has the fiberglass
tiller, the 130 genoa (still in it's bag) pop top enclosure, cockpit
cushions, blue bimini top, 2013 Tohatsu 6hp sailpro motor with tiller
control and with only about 20 hrs of use.   Oh, and I have both the new
traveler and the genoa furling system that allows you to switch from the 170
to the 130 and back again. (never installed) 

All this gloriousness sits on a 2013 Triad trailer with no more than 1,100
miles on it. Picked up Baby Steps in Edenton and drove it 650 miles directly
to East Greenwich RI.  The trailer then made 5 trips of 88 miles back and
forth to and from our home.  The trailer was never used to launch the boat -
the marina handled launching and recovery with their crane.

If someone has $28,000 I would reluctantly part with it at a great loss,
both financially and emotionally.

</file/t578/IMG_2595.jpg> 

Serious inquiries & questions can be sent to Mrbabins AT Gmail.com before I
change my mind.

P.S. There is a tear on the sunbrella fabric on the main sail caused by the
sail trying to beat itself to death after breaking free from the IMF
carriage shackle.  There is also a small ding (quarter size) on the edge of
a seat.

Hi all,

I'm a new (to me) Rhodes owner - I picked up my boat "Blue Beyond" from
Stan at the end of June.  After doing a few projects on land, I launched
the boat about a week ago.

After sailing a few times, I noticed that the sail doesn't fully furl into
the mast - i think it is about a turn short.  The furling line is fully
extended.  I think another wrap or two around the furler would fix the
problem.

I am now on a mooring and would really rather not drop the mast to
correct.  Has anyone been able to / have thoughts on adding a wrap with the
mast up?

Thanks!

Welcome to ?da list Jerry.  There should be the uv triangle sticking out of
the mast. This is normal. If there is more than that I think you need the
mast down & slide the assembly out of the mast to get additional wraps
around the hub.  I replaced my boom mount this year & made sure to wrap
enough line when assembling.

Where do you keep your boat?  I was at Squantum Yacht Club in Quincy for 14
years & am now at Hingham Shipyard Marina.  Good to have another Rhodes in
MA.

Thanks Stephen.  Yes, i have the sunbrella triangle out as well as a few
inches of the canvas sails.  I was hoping I wouldn't have to drop the sail.

I have the boat on a mooring at the Hawthorne Cove marina in Salem.

 Jerry,
I have dealt with this before.? If you need another wrap or two on the furling drum, I found that it can be done with the mast up.
I taped a string to the end of the furling line and pulled it out of the boom through the hole in the forward end of the boom.? Disconnect the string.? It will be used for pulling the furling line back thru the boom.? I used a bendable piece of wire to fish the tail of the furling line around the drum a turn or two.? A pair of needle-nose pliers can help too.? Then re-attach the string and pull it out the aft hole in the boom.? A piece of wire that will hold a bend and some patience are the keys to doing this.
I hope this helps.
Don,? Ithaca, NY

Jerry,

I had the same problem a month ago. I put a new mainsail on the IMF at the
beginning of the season. Furling the sail in the first heavy wind caused it
to wrap tighter than I was able to wrap it by hand so I did not have enough
turns of the furling line on the IMF barrel.

I was able to add turns without dropping the mast. With the sail furled as
far as the furling line would allow, I passed a small wire through the slot
in the block that connects the goose neck to the mast. This slot on my boat
is right at the furling barrel of the IMF. I used this wire as a messenger
line to pull the furling line an additional turn around the barrel. I had to
do this twice to furl the main to the sunbrella triangle.

Hope this helps.

Chris on LBI

A pair of needle-nose pliers can help too.  Then re-attach the string and pull it out the aft hole in the boom.  A piece of wire that will hold a bend and some patience are the keys to doing this.

I just got my main sail delivered today from Stan.  This thread has made me
think to make a few wraps of the furling line before I even start rolling up
the sail.  Hope to have my first sailing adventure on the 3rd of August.

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Crack in Transom - Part Two
Message-ID: <BYAPR07MB58292CFC9E4F2A7F7C5C7FDECAC00@BYAPR07MB5829.namprd07.prod.outlook.com>

Several weeks ago, I posted a message about a crack that had developed in the transom immediately adjacent to the track that the engine elevator guide wheel runs along.  In the meantime, I?ve gotten some estimates which convinced me to try the repair myself and spent as much time as three knowledgable folks were willing to spend with me developing a plan of action.  At that point, the heat and humidity kicked in.  50 years after developing diabetes and 18 years after sextuple bypass surgery, I don?t do heat and humidity, so I?m just now getting to start the work.

The plan was to cup out the outside so that I can lay several sheets of fiberglass on it and then sand it to a smooth finish.  I don?t want to have a high point from extra layers as that may just create a new stress point.  On the inside, the plan was to place several layers of fiberglass back by a piece of marine plywood, filling the space between the two piece of wood backing the engine elevator side rails.

Attached below (I hope) are pictures of the current state of affairs.  On the outside I have started sanding out the cup.  I still need to go farther up and to the right so as to have enough overlap of the cloth.  As you can see just above and to the right of the center of the sanded area, it appears as thought there was some sort of circular through hull opening at one time which was plugged.  The crack goes around half of the plug, and I suspect the relative weakness the repair contributed to the formation of the crack.  You can also see a series of holes in a vertical line left of center.  The top one in the sanded area and one above it (Half visible) were where the elevator motor mounting bolts went through.  The bottom hole in the vertical line was where the bolt on the bottom of the guide track went through.  The others, including one which is still plugged were, presumably, left over from an earlier engine mount or something else.

[cid:6E6286FF-25EB-46EA-B655-7DA5F7A63525 at fios-router.home]


On the inside, I had to chisel away the 1/4? plywood onto which the elevator was mounted  You will see that a little bit of the plywood remains to be sanded away; I didn?t want to risk chiseling a new hole through the transom.  I will do more sanding on the inside as well, but I don?t know that I will be able to get it perfectly smooth and flat without risking opening up the cracked area more.  My current thinking, pending another visit to one of my experts and/or comments from this group, is to try to put a wedge of epoxy with filler material on the inside, creating a flat surface.  I?d use a plastic scraper cut to fir between the two elevator rail boards.  When that is dried and sanded, I?ll apply three or four layers of glass, then epoxy a new piece of 1/2 or 3/4 inch marine plywood to that.  If there is still room to maneuver, I?ll try to put at least one layer of glass over than to tie the wood into the transom an bottom of the hull.

[cid:4B395ADE-1341-45BD-8135-F41C8DCFF822 at fios-router.home]

Comments and suggestions would be most welcomed.

It definitely looks like a  hole was plugged.   I assume this is inboard of
the factory through hull for the cockpit seat drain?     I suspect it was a
plug for damage from a prior non factory motor mount that pulled out of and
damaged the transom.   Or maybe a motor was run with a bad prop and vibrated
the back of your boat to bits?     If the plug is solid I don?t know if you
should remove it or trust it.  If it was added by Stan?s shop it was
probably done right.   If it was done by some bass boat or corvette guy,
maybe not.   I bet the crack was a tiny hairline only at that time but
spread like a damaged windshield.   

You need to drill another  hole in the bottom of the crack, to stop its
spread.   I would also widen the crack to a couple mm with a jigsaw.   Cover
one side with tape and inject the defect with epoxy.   Dry it with acetone
first.   I think you also need to sand more, to get past the original blue
gellcoat and the inside to raw fiberglass as well.    Others can better
advise on the best epoxy, I made mistakes which affected painting on my 1976
first boat, from ignorance and limited local supply.   Order three times as
much of the right stuff as you think you need.   When the crack is filled
you can add new structure with woven tape and more epoxy, then fair it.  
Wear a mask and ventilate.    This should be easy (flat surface and
accessible) with enough power tools.

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Motor Lift Cutout Circuit
Message-ID: <1564199770230-0.post@n5.nabble.com>

As I posted a few days ago, I?ve just bought a beautiful 1986 Rhodes refurbed
in 2010. I?ve spent very little time on the boat and don?t pick it up until
this Monday.

The boat has many neat features including the electric motor lift. I may be
unnecessarily worrying about this, but I worry about a 2500 lb pull winch
not stopping when it should while raising the motor, either through a
malfunction or some stupid mistake I or someone else might make. I?ve been
playing with an idea I?d like to post and get some feedback from others who
may have thought about this and anyone who knows more about diodes than the
very limited knowledge I have. 

I hope my PDF will show up on this post. Since I didn?t have the boat in
front of me when I started designing this, I have no idea if it is feasible.
Basically I envision the motor coming up and when it is the proper height,
some part of the motor or lift system pushes a lever when extends through
the transom into the lazarette. (a small hole would need to be drilled
through the transom, perhaps with some sort of rubber boot to semi seal the
opening) This lever pushes on a spring loaded rod and breaks the circuit for
the up current stopping the lift motor. The diode would prevent any current
flowing to the up side when the circuit is broken, but would allow the
reverse current to lower the motor. The diode and contacts would be enclosed
in some sort of plastic electrical box. One question I have for those with
electrical knowledge is what diode would I use for a 12V 30 amp circuit?

Thanks for looking at this crazy idea,

I forgot to add that I actually tried tried to think of some way to use a
solenoid and microswitch to stop the motor, but with my limited electrical
knowledge, I could not come up with a system which wasn't drawing a small
current when in either the down or up position. I decided if I wanted to
attempt this, I would need some mechanical way to break the circuit .

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] boom hitting back stays
Message-ID: <1564370218455-0.post@n5.nabble.com>

Hi everyone, I'm now a Rhodes 22 owner.  My boat arrived to Council 
Bluffs, Iowa from Florida on Thursday night, a friend and I put the mast up
on Friday night after work, and I took it sailing on Saturday and Sunday. 
For the first couple of sails I went with some experienced people at our
club.  The Rhodes 22 isn't quite like anything else around here so it really
sticks out from the usual boats around this size.  It is quite popular!

On the first trip out, I had yet to do a formal tuning.  Wind was 12-14
knots.  I was having issues with the boom getting stuck on the back stay,
which led to some exciting moments when I wanted to de-power by letting out
the sheet but it was stuck.  Simply pushing on the back stay let the boom go
out but I obviously have something incorrect.

With the help of a friend who had a Loo's guage, this morning we tuned the
rigging according to the IMF instructions posted by Roger Pihlaja at the
link below.
http://www.rhodes22.org/doclib/Rhodes22-RigTuning.doc

The upper sidestays are at 300 lb and the lower sidestays are at 200 lb. 
While under sail I have the backstay tensioner cleated off, though I
neglected to measure the tension with the guage.

I'm still having issues with the boom hitting the backstay.  There are a
couple of work arounds: 
1. Lower the main (requires the pop top to be down) and lowers boom
clearance for everyone in the cockpit
2. Pull the traveler bar slightly towards the rear rail with a load strap. 
This isn't ideal since it puts some bend in the back stays where it is not
intended.

I forgot to take a photo of the whole stern to show entire setup, but I
attached a couple of photos that provide some perspective.  One shows how I
used a load strap to pull the traveler bar slightly towards the rear rail. 
The second is me (starboard side in blue life jacket where you can see the
traveler bar, backstays, and the backstay tensioner.  The third shows how
much clearance there is for the boom against the backstay when there is low
wind and I have the traveler bar pulled back some as I mentioned earlier.

Jessie,

My guess is your mast is reclined too far aft.  The forestay needs to be shorter.  There should be a turnbuckle under the roller furling drum.  The upper and lower sidestays will need to be adjusted as well.  Check your owner?s manual for instructions on setting up the standing rigging.  Besides not having the boom hit the backstays, you will also benefit from less weather helm after you make this adjustment.

Hi:

The rig is w/ fore stay and back stays adjusted so mast is vertical.  The
fore/center/aft shrouds should be  equally ***hand-tight*** on
port/starboard.

Stan is quite clear about this.


 Put your gauge away...

Thanks Shawn.? The windward shrouds *automatically* tighten to exactly 
what is needed to make the boat heel match the mast heel.? You can tell 
if a Rhodes shrouds have been tightened by a pro by noticing how the 
hull shape has been distorted.

Jessie, two issues:? If you have an early boat you may have a short mast 
top fitting.? The other: The boom should be naturally relatively 
horizontal when sailing.? If you have an alien sail that raises the aft 
end of the boom in order to be able to be attached to the boom, the boom 
will not manage the shortening space between mast and back stay (the 
hypotenuse of the triangle that the boom, back stays and mast form).

I have a nice recycled Rhodes with new boat guarantee for you, if all 
else fails.? Or alternately having a GB Certificate of Support that gets 
you into that community of Rhodies wanting their boat to keep being a 
"boat in production" would help you.

I don?t see the topping lift connected to the boom in your photo, I also don?t see the back stay adjusters.

Jessie,



I took another look at your photos.  It does appear that you have no boom topping lift.  But, this would not cause the end of the boom to hit the backstays.  The topping lift supports the aft end of the boom when the mainsail is not in use or when the wind is so light that you want to take the weight of the boom off the mainsail for the purpose of achieving better light air sail shape.  If the topping lift is adjusted too high; then, you could have an issue with the end of the boom hitting the backstays.  But, since your topping lift isn?t even hooked up, you don?t have that issue.



Your backstays appear to be tight and I see what looks like the backstay adjuster rigged down to the port side of the transom.  I presume the backstay adjuster tackle is simply too high & out of view the picture.  Chris is correct.  If the backstays are too loose; then, you could have an issue with the boom hitting the backstays.  But, that does not appear to be the case.



I am assuming the boom is at the standard height?  If the boom is too high on the mast for some reason; then, that could cause the end of the boom to hit the backstays.  But, the inner mast furling mechanism pretty much sets the boom height.  So, unless you have something else, it?s hard to understand how the gooseneck could be too high on the mast.



Once again, I come back to the hypothesis that your mast is reclined too far aft.



Roger Pihlaja

You don't appear to have the back-stay tensioner on correctly. Make sure
you have a double-purchase on the back-stay block and tackle. The 2
back-stays should be quite loose before tensioning and close together when
tensioned. It's difficult to explain so I am attaching a crude diagram

Jessie,



This is ridiculous!  Please take 2 photos.  The 1st photo needs to show the entire backstay adjuster.  The 2nd photo should be from the side of the boat from far enough away to show the entire side elevation and the entire mast.

You don't appear to have the back-stay tensioner on correctly. Make sure
you have a double-purchase on the back-stay block and tackle. The 2
back-stays should be quite loose before tensioning and close together when
tensioned. It's difficult to explain so I am attaching a crude diagram

Message-ID: <55a8fbb4-1b96-8733-6142-ffce320caf5a@generalboats.com>


To all those considering a refurbished Rhodes22, we would like to point 
out again that the Rhodes value is, to a major degree, due to the fact 
that it remains a boat in production.

In order to be fair to those who support General Boats efforts in 
keeping the Rhodes 22 a boat in production for its second 50 years, 
refurbished Rhodes purchased from an unauthorized source, will have a 
boat that is no longer recognized by General Boats, as a Rhodes built by 
General Boats and therefore such owners will not be able to turn to 
General Boats for any proprietary Rhodes parts or services.

The business plan of such a rogue company is to cash in on all General 
Boats investments in innovating and promoting the Rhodes sailboat to 
maintain its historic longevity position as the leading trailing still 
in production sailboat.? The rogue business plan is based on their being 
a hitch hiking company, not needing to contribute a single dollar to 
maintaining the high name recognition value of the Rhodes boats they 
seek to recycle.

It is important Rhodes buyers understand that the purchase of a recycled 
Rhodes from a company like Voilier is akin to shooting ones self in the 
foot.

Thanks for the quick feedback!  I should have posted with better photographs
last night, but I was worn out after an eventful first weekend with the
boat.  Sorry the light isn't the best in the photos from tonight, but I
wasn't able to get to the boat until a bit before sunset.  A caveat
regarding the photos from tonight is that the boat is not perfectly level as
it is parked on the trailer since the pavement is on a slight incline.  The
photos of the boat in the water are from the weekend.  The next time I'll be
able to get it in the water is Sunday.  

Here are some notes in reply to the feedback in posts from the group:
1) Background about the boat: it is a 1991 model that was refurbished in
2013.  The prior owner is very helpful, but he is traveling out of the
country at the moment so I turned to the list for advice instead.
2) The main is a Doyle sail, apparently made for the Rhodes 22, that was
installed by the prior owner a few years ago.
3) I took off the topping lift while under sail and reattached it just
before furling the main.  I didn't realize that it is best to leave it on
during light wind.
3) Some photos of the roller furling drum are attached. Should I simply take
out the pin and turn clockwise to shorten the forestay?    Also, do I need
to unscrew the black plastic guide for the furling line or simply move the
line out the way and the guide would rotate as well.  Since it was a bit
late when I got to the boat today I didn't experiment with this yet.  Also I
assume that I may need to release tension on the lower aft stays before
tightening the forestay.
4) To get to the tension of 300 lb for the upper side stays and 200 lb for
the lower side stays, I simply tightened the turn buckles by hand though it
took some effort to reach that tension.  Is this too much tension?
5) The boom is at the standard height with the gooseneck set at the height
which allows for sailing with the pop top up.  
6) If I'm reading the diagram from Richard and the example photos showing
the back stay tensioner on other Rhodes, it appears that mine is set
appropriately with the double purchase.  Please correct me if I am mistaken.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Jessie,

OK, one quick remark regarding the way your backstay adjuster is rigged ... The lines between the blocks should not crisscross like they are in the photo.  The lines should run fairly thru the blocks without crossing over each other.  But, even with the way the tackle is rigged, you have the backstays under sufficient tension.  So, loose backstays are not the problem.

Similarly, the side elevation shots show the angle of the mast rake is ~ correct.  So, this is not what is causing the boom to hit the backstays.  Therefore, you do not need to shorten the forestay.

To my eye, your boom looks like it is riding too high on the mast.  If you could lower the boom by a couple of inches, that would eliminate the boom/backstay interference.

Other than that, I don?t have any other suggestions.

Jesse,

It?s always been an issue.  Not really sure the best way to address. 

Just be sure you?re not tightening the rigging more than hand tight. No tools with the IMF.

I have to agree with Roger.  The boom looks high, but it is tough to be sure.  Maybe next time you are at the boat you can take a measurement from the bottom of the mast to the bottom of the car or goose-neck.  That way it could be compared to another Rhodie's.  It wouldn't take much to make a difference.

Jessie,

OK, one quick remark regarding the way your backstay adjuster is rigged ... The lines between the blocks should not crisscross like they are in the photo.  The lines should run fairly thru the blocks without crossing over each other.  But, even with the way the tackle is rigged, you have the backstays under sufficient tension.  So, loose backstays are not the problem.

Similarly, the side elevation shots show the angle of the mast rake is ~ correct.  So, this is not what is causing the boom to hit the backstays.  Therefore, you do not need to shorten the forestay.

To my eye, your boom looks like it is riding too high on the mast.  If you could lower the boom by a couple of inches, that would eliminate the boom/backstay interference.

Other than that, I don?t have any other suggestions.

Jesse:  To my eye it looks like an easy fix.  First of all only hand tighten your rig. No tension measurements.  Overtightening rigs is always a bad idea and causes equipment failure.
The tangs on the back of the boom seem to be the problem.  Use the bent one for the topping lift and find a tiny shackle and get rid of the large carabiner.  Also i would only use 1/4? line (or even paracord) for a topping lift.  You may need to bend that tang a little more. Also make sure the bolt is tight in the end of the boom with just enough space to let the tangs swivel.  
Tolerances on this part of the rig are very tight and small adjustments should make the boom swing without restriction.

I'm leaning towards the boom being too high too.  With the pop top up, how much clearance is there between the boom and the pop top? Should be very little.  The boom can be raised and lowered.  Is there a pin at the gooseneck that can be pulled and the boom lowered?  There should be a couple of holes where the pin and reside in as the boom moves up and down.  Maybe drop it down and see if the boom clears the backstays. - rob

Jessie,

OK, one quick remark regarding the way your backstay adjuster is rigged ... The lines between the blocks should not crisscross like they are in the photo.  The lines should run fairly thru the blocks without crossing over each other.  But, even with the way the tackle is rigged, you have the backstays under sufficient tension.  So, loose backstays are not the problem.

Similarly, the side elevation shots show the angle of the mast rake is ~ correct.  So, this is not what is causing the boom to hit the backstays.  Therefore, you do not need to shorten the forestay.

To my eye, your boom looks like it is riding too high on the mast.  If you could lower the boom by a couple of inches, that would eliminate the boom/backstay interference.

Other than that, I don?t have any other suggestions.

Jesse- As a VERY casual observer (wife of the sailor), I indeed think that
Bob is on to something.  What I see in your picture is a big carabiner
holding the topping lift line, ours is a much smaller shackle.  The other
thing that may be contributing is the line you are using for the backstay
tension.  We use a 1/4 line there, too.  Bob is correct, the clearance is
very small, but those two things together will likely do the trick by making
just enough room for the boom to get by.  

Good luck- you will LOVE your new boat!

Linda

Thanks for the quick feedback!  I should have posted with better photographs
last night, but I was worn out after an eventful first weekend with the
boat.  Sorry the light isn't the best in the photos from tonight, but I
wasn't able to get to the boat until a bit before sunset.  A caveat
regarding the photos from tonight is that the boat is not perfectly level as
it is parked on the trailer since the pavement is on a slight incline.  The
photos of the boat in the water are from the weekend.  The next time I'll be
able to get it in the water is Sunday.  

Here are some notes in reply to the feedback in posts from the group:
1) Background about the boat: it is a 1991 model that was refurbished in
2013.  The prior owner is very helpful, but he is traveling out of the
country at the moment so I turned to the list for advice instead.
2) The main is a Doyle sail, apparently made for the Rhodes 22, that was
installed by the prior owner a few years ago.
3) I took off the topping lift while under sail and reattached it just
before furling the main.  I didn't realize that it is best to leave it on
during light wind.
3) Some photos of the roller furling drum are attached. Should I simply take
out the pin and turn clockwise to shorten the forestay?    Also, do I need
to unscrew the black plastic guide for the furling line or simply move the
line out the way and the guide would rotate as well.  Since it was a bit
late when I got to the boat today I didn't experiment with this yet.  Also I
assume that I may need to release tension on the lower aft stays before
tightening the forestay.
4) To get to the tension of 300 lb for the upper side stays and 200 lb for
the lower side stays, I simply tightened the turn buckles by hand though it
took some effort to reach that tension.  Is this too much tension?
5) The boom is at the standard height with the gooseneck set at the height
which allows for sailing with the pop top up.  
6) If I'm reading the diagram from Richard and the example photos showing
the back stay tensioner on other Rhodes, it appears that mine is set
appropriately with the double purchase.  Please correct me if I am mistaken.

Thanks in advance for your help!

George, 
Welcome to the Rhodes22 club! I'm in my third year of ownership and have
learned volumes on this List! Regarding the motor lift switch, it is a DPDT
switch that requires continuous holding in the direction (up or down). I
don't know the description of this type of switch. I don't see the need for
the cutout you are contemplating. If the switch on your Rhodes does not
"release", then it would be easier to replace it with one that I have
described. There are a lot more things you will want to be doing other than
that.  Just a thought.

During a series of unnecessarily dramatic events involving a dead motor, flogging sail and attempt t connect t a tow, the connection between my boom and traveler blew with some parts apparently gone overboard.  I have (attempted to) attach photos of what I have.  I think i am missing the lower part of the fiddle block (not sure if that is the correct name) and a clevis pin that runs thru the small u block on the traveler.  Does anyone have a photo of what this all lookalike properly put together?  And any specs on the missing parts?  Thanks much.

Thanks Joe...


You?re probably right about spending my time on other things...learning to
sail for one. Stan emailed me and said no one had ever had problems with the
electric lift not stopping.  

I got delayed pickng up my boat. I?m now picking her up tomorrow. We?ll be
taking the mast down and loading her on my trailer. When I get her home I
need to find out why the mast lights dont work and then she?s off for some
minor fiberglass repair. Hopefuuly, in the water soon. 

George

Stan,
Take comfort in the fact that it is your authentic Rhodes and not some
ersatz Rhodes that has compleated another 1000 miles plus trip along the
coasts of Italy and Greece. Maybe not as catchy as ?I like Ike? but I?m
proud to be a ?Stan Fan? for the last 43 years.

George, 
The masthead (steaming) light on my Rhodes (1989) is a Perko model and uses
a festoon type bulb. I replaced incandescent with an LED. They have a
tendency to slip out of the brass mounting clip. Testing can be difficult.
Using a couple of test wires with alligator clips and a 9 volt battery, I
disconnected the deck mount connector and attached the alligator clips to
pins in the plug. If light works, you've got a circuit problem inside the
boat. If it doesn't, lower mast to cradle. You should be able to access lamp
without removing tabernacle pin. This is a good time to convert to LED. I
purchased LEDs for all my nav lights from superbrightleds.com. They're a
fraction of the cost of the Marine dealers. You'll need bulb measurement. I
can provide part no. If you need it, let me know. Note: may not be USCG
approved. 

Hope this helps.

Hey Alex,
In all honesty I'm still learning the Rhodes rig. Yes I think you need the
traveler to windward to get a better point. I find it annoying from what I'm
used to because u need to adjust traveler after each Tack. I have the 175
Genoa and I pull it in as tight and close as I can get it then adjust the
main as needed.

Hope to see you around Stingray!

Here are some additional measurements (see photographs below):
- 3.5" between the bottom of the boom and the top of the pop top
- 33" from the top of the deck to the bottom of the boom
- 29.25 from the top of the deck to the center of the pin hole on the mast
for the higher boom setting
- 27 3/8" from the top of the deck to the center of the pin hole on the mast
for the pop top car
- 9.25" from the top of the deck to the center of the pin hole on the mast
for the lower boom setting
- 1" between the bottom of the black plastic gooseneck block and the top of
the car that attaches to the pop top (when the pop top is raised)
- around 73" from the floor of the cockpit (not the drain) to the bottom of
the boom when the boom is roughly horizontal. I would need to re-measure
that using a level for verification when the boat is flat on the water.

I am curious if other R22s have the same measurements.     

I agree that lowering the boom a bit would address the issue.  It seem like
I could add another hole in the mast for the pin from the boom car about an
inch lower (I'm nervous about drilling into the mast).  Now that I am
writing this, it occurrs to me that I could do a low risk test of that
theory by raising the pop top, pulling the pin from the upper setting and
lowering the boom car to be right on top of the pop top car (even though the
boom car would not have clicked in).  I wouldn't sail without the boom car
pin set, but I could try it at the dock to see how much difference that
makes.

Regarding the topping lift, it sounds like I could go with some lighter line
and adjust the attachment to use a small snap shackle to make it protrude
less than the carabiner.  However, that only addresses the light wind
scenario or when the topping lift is still on.  When under medium to heavy
wind, it is my understanding that a topping lift is not needed, but the
power in the main keeps the boom up in that case.

Side note: I'll rerun the backstay tensioner lines so they are not crossed. 
It was a bit of sloppy work on my part for the initial rigging.

Thanks for the continued feedback!

Jessie,



I don?t have the inner mast furling option on S/V Dynamic Equilibrium.  So, the height adjusting mechanism for my boom is different than yours.  But, can?t you pull the pin on the boom gooseneck car and drop the boom a couple of inches for sailing?  That should make your boom/backstay interference issue go away.  Then, as part of your pop top raising procedure, raise the boom 1st, then raise the aft end of the pop top into position, and then lift the pop top car into position.



When my boom is in the upper position, I have ~1? of clearance between the pop top and the bottom of the boom at the closest point.

Looking at old pics of Fretless, I would say Jesse's boom is right side 
up. The aft fittings are the same. However, I would agree with what 
Linda said earlier to start with losing the big carabiner and perhaps 
bending the tang on the aft end a bit. It may also be that the tang 
itself is upside down. Our topping lift was always just knotted to the 
tang and we just loosened it and let it flop when sailing. Never had a 
problem with it hitting the stays unless we let the boom rise or forgot 
to loosen the topping lift.

Stan has truly earned my respect and loyalty. Oh if only I could get the
chapters out on time. The computer will only work when on the power sucking
inverter. Getting close to the next installment. In the mean time here is a

I am still sorry that when you guys stopped by the plant (seems like a 
hundred years ago) enroute to OR, you could not stay.? By Now you could 
have had his and her Rhodes and been sailing the Med with a little more 
space, or racing to see who touches Greece first.? I know getting there 
for you is all the fund and being "home" will be the other 100% of the fun.
