SHE IS A BIG BOAT
Jenny Lane has a 50-gallon fuel tank. This tank is good for approximately 40 hours of
running.
3. Sails and Rigging
The mainsail is rigged with in-mast roller furling. DO NOT open the main halyard (blue
and white). When furling or unfurling the mainsail the boom must be as close to
perpendicular with the mast as possible, an excessive angle will cause the sail to fold and
bind inside the mast. To unfurl, open the Reef clutch on the starboard side and pull the
Outhaul on the starboard side. Close the Reef clutch when the desired amount of sail is
unfurled. To furl, open the Outhaul clutch and maintain a little tension on the Outhaul
while pulling the Reef line. This tension is to keep the sail wrapped tightly and prevents
binding. The mainsheet is led to the cockpit on the starboard side. It is secured in a jam
cleat marked “Main Sheet.”
There are two extra halyards tied off to the mast pulpit, they come out of the port side of
the mast.
The jib roller furling line is secured on the starboard side of the cockpit. The jib can be
furled and unfurled with this line. To reef the Jib, take in on the furling line and secure it
on the jib winch. Do not furl or unfurl the sail when head to wind. A close reach is best
so the UV cloth is not destroyed on the shrouds.
There are two winch handles located in the center table in the cockpit.
