[Rhodes22-list] Damaged Fiberglass where Swivel Captains Seat Inserts

[Michael D. Weisner]

George,

If it is priced within your budget and you are relatively handy, simply purchase it.

Learn how to repair the 'glass yourself, unless you can afford bringing it to a shop, and reinforce the space underneath with a good sized piece of wood to distribute the load so that it doesn't happen again.  Don't forget to reinforce the other side as well.

Then, GO SAILING in your new-to-you Rhodes 22!

I’m seriously considering buying an R22 which has some fiberglass damage on the port side captains seat mounting area. When the seat is inserted,, it wobbles around due to the damaged fiberglass. Has anyone else had this happen and if so, how difficult is it to repair. I will try to attach a photo. 

Thanks,
George
