Re: M_Boats: rigging internal halyards
Nick, 'Post to where ?' is a good question, we no longer have the ability to 'store' photos on a site. Seems like you got it dialed in and the experience. The first round for my current M-17 outhaul, I had the thing set-up backwards as pointed out by Jerry (he reads the books) - made it LESS efficient to adjust ! Brain fade. For those that are interested - the best place to find versions of this type rigging is probably at the Harken site. Outhauls, Cunninghams, Barber and in hauls, any manner of rigging involving hardware. They will show you things you never new existed for example. Gross/Fine tune cascading mainsheets - gotta put one of those on the 7-11. _http://www.harken.com/rigtips/rigtips.php_ (http://www.harken.com/rigtips/rigtips.php) There seems to be a camp that is okay with cutting slots and drilling holes in their spars and a camp that says No Way - I respect both sides. I am fortunate in that I have a great fabricator/welder buddy that can fix anything I screw up ! I am working on jib lead in hauls - decided not to install the inboard track. trying to improve my upwind crab action when the keel stalls. Do not know where to post pictures but...for those interested try the link above or check the Harken One- Design rigging tips for a small keelboat or large dinghy. Take Care, Have Fun, Go Sailing GO
