Jim,
Attached are two pictures of my 88 vintage furler. Hope these help. The  
smaller hole on the drum isn't used. If you have any further questions, don't  
hesitate to ask.
 
Rummy

I have recently purchased a 1988 rhodes 22. The jib  sail was removed from 
the furling tube and I would like to put it back on the  tube. The sail has 
a pocket for the furling tube to be inserted into. On the  top of the tube 
there is a screw and washer that probably holds the top of the  jib sail to 
the tube through a grommet in the sail. The bottom of the furling  tube does 
not have a hole to insert a screw. The bottom of the jib sail does  have a 
grommet. About three fourths of an inch up from the bottom of the  furling 
tube there is a disc of about four and a half inch diameter with two  holes in 
it. One hole is about five eights inch diameter and the other hole is  
about three sixteenths inch diameter. I don't understand how the bottom of the  
jib is to be attached and I also don't know the purpose of the holes in the  
disc at the bottom of the furling tube. I can send photographs to clarify. 
A  photo or explanation of this set up will be greatly appreciated. 
Thanks,Jim
