[Rhodes22-list] Parts

[Peter Nyberg]

Bob,

I'm pretty sure that 'gooseneck' is the correct technical term.

A few years ago, I also found my gooseneck parts all bent out of shape.  I managed to find parts to rebuild it stronger than before, and made a YouTube video about the process: https://youtu.be/z_pg6PVEZqI

I got the key parts from the Dwyer Aluminum Mast Company (https://www.dwyermast.com).  They are the original manufacturer of most Rhodes 22 standing rigging.  In the video I walk through how to find the parts on their website.  Unfortunately, since then the company was sold, and the website has changed, and it no longer has a break-down of gooseneck parts.  There have been reports that Dwyer people have been very helpful on the phone.

I also got a few bolts from McMaster-Carr (https://www.mcmaster.com).

A breakdown of the parts follows:

Dwyer      1  DH-334   Heavy Duty Universal
Dwyer      2  DH-3143 Heavy Duty U-Bracket
Dwyer      2  ?            Pins 
McMaster  1  98164A306  SS Button Hd Bolt - 3/8 x 1 1/2"
McMaster  1  98164A317  SS Button Hd Bolt - 3/8 x 2 1/2"
Anywhere 1  3/8" nylock nut

Best of luck, and please let us know how things work out.

BTW, thanks for updating your profile on rhodes22.net, including boat information and an avatar!
