The 1978 Rhodes 22 I bought in July was missing any sort of mainsheet rigging. That is my next project to tackle. Has anyone seen an R22 rigged with a traveler and mainsheet installed at the entrance to the passageway - like some smaller Catalinas? It seems like an awkward place for it to be but practical for handling the mainsheet.

I am a bit baffled when I look at pictures of R22s with travelers and blocks rigged between the rear stays at the level of the stern rail. Can someone explain the setup and hardware for that.

Thanks in advance.
