Ramon,
We have several owners in Florida. I'm sure one of them will speak up  
shortly. There is a owners manual that I'm sure someone on the list can send you 
 attached to an email, or you could search the archives to find it. Some 
parts  are special to the R22, but many can be purchased through marine 
dealers such as  West Marine or Defender.

Ramon,
Greetings and welcome to the list.  I just sold my 76 last  year and I'm 
sure they are similar.  Where are you located?  Might  be some Rhodies in your 
area who could help get you up to speed a lot quicker.  - rob

Greetings Ramon! You will find a wealth of knowledge here.  Besides being 
out of the water for 10 years, what else do you know? If the  hull is good, 
you may have some work to do but it will be worth  it.
