i have recently obtained a 1971 c22 that had been abandoned at dock in the water for almost 3 years. the boat was missing the tiller and rudder, which i have replaced by building both.(seems fine) there is an old over-board commode on board. the boat needs all new cleats,hinges and lines. Can anyone tell me the size of the main and jib lines and any others i may need. i am tuning the mast, and prepareing to have bottom cleaned prior to pulling the boat. there was a main and jib sail on board. a little water logged but both seem fine. the lock for the swing keel is frozen in the locked position, but i think the keel has been raised and lowered anyway. Any recomendation? What should i be looking for, i havent yet seen??

Good job.

Sounds like a fun project. I rebuilt my 71, hull number 517 a few years ago. Mine was actually in good shape just needed to give it a bottom job and replace all rigging, standing and running. I now race the boat. Lots of fun. Where are you located? Paul
