  1. If you want to singlehand a J/22, just raise the main and don't mess with the jib. I've got a passenger in the photo but she was just along for the ride. If the wind picks up, the backstay is your best friend. I've sailed singlehanded out of Annapolis, Newport and it resides most of the time at Dillon Reservoir in Colorado. Easy as can be.
  2. rigrite.com has all the parts and sizes you need, here's the list of parts and sizes from their website...

  3. I had my bottom done at Muller Marine in Eastport in '06 but Bobby has retired... If you want to do it yourself and it isn't too pockmarked I'd start at 80 and go to 150 before painting the bottom. Just get it fair and paint it with Interlux VC White. I used a Festool 6" sander with the vacumn attachment and it came out great.
  4. If you're looking for the plate that attaches to the two aft keel bolts, you'll need to differentiate between the old setup (hull 1263 and older) and the new - available through Waterline, this link - https://www.waterlinesystems.com/new-products/j22-lifting-bar-older-style - will show you both - you just bolt the plate on top of the existing bolts. Here's the link to APS for the lifting strap - https://www.apsltd.com/lifting-strap-2-diameter-x-5.html or you can have one made up (it's more expensive and don't ask me how I know)
  5. Don't know if you'd really want to do that. It could impede cockpit drainage, catch sheets and generally make your life miserable. I've seen photos of Seadeck after it weathers that don't really look very good and it's a beast to remove.
