hope you enjoy it
Lessons learned?
- move the halyard tie on point on the yard further up so it is about a third of the way along - hopefully this will allow the sail to pull right up to the mast
- move the sprit boom intersection point on the mast far higher
- make sure I remember to tie on the parrel beads at the tack - around the mast
- crank on the downhaul tension - this may need an upgrade in the block and tackle used 😂
- add a parrel bead loop at the bottom of the yard where the throat is to hold it securely against the mast - not so tight that the sail cannot be lowered effectively though
Out tomorrow with those changes , so it should be interesting to see what happens.
A write up of the latest overnighter to cellars beach will appear on the blog in the net few weeks - watch this space as they say
