Re: Orginal Main Sheet Rigging Picture/Diagram for Venture 2

Re: Keel problems on V 2-22
Thanks guys for your response. I'm not experienced in fiberglass work so I need some advice. From what I saw of the metal part of my keel, it is a flat slab of steel. Steve, I looked at you pics and want to know how to get the foil shape (BTW your finished keel looks like an airplane wing - very nic...

Parts Source for 2-22
I live in Florida and was wondering if anyone knows of a parts source for my 1971 2-22 closer to me then Blue Water Yachts. I need keel pivot and lock down bolts with rubber washers. Would also like to get a new cable for the keel winch and attachment bolt. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Re: Florida Cruise Dec.27-Jan 1st
Hi,
I just bought a 222 and have started refurbishing it. When done I'd like to go with your group. How often do you take group cruises? I live west or Orlando.

Re: Venture 2-22 Owners out there
Hi, Just bought a 1971 2-22. Boats in good shape except for the normal keel problems. Got all the original sails and they are in great shape! Once I get the keel problem fixed and replace some of the rigging I'll be ready to go. Living in Florida you can sail year around.

Keel problems on V 2-22
I'm the proud owner of a, just purchased, 1971 Venture 2-22. I haven't sailed since I was a teen and when I did it was in small boats. I am very excited to get back into sailing after 45 years. With that said I need some advice on the swing keel problem on these boats. My keel has splits and cracks ...
