RIGGING
This procedure has been developed from over hundreds of launchings around the world
and has proven to be safe and easy. Don’t be disheartened if it takes you longer the first
few times. This is not a race. After a few launchings this process will become easier as
you are more familiar with your boat and your confidence builds.
Two people can have a 750, C28 rigged and launched in around 30 minutes. The Cruze
970 may take a little longer as everything is larger and heavier.
CAUTION
Always park into the wind, or uphill to help the mast stay in line while being winched up.
Trailer should remain hooked to towing vehicle.
DANGER
Before starting to rig, check to see that there are no power lines for the mast not to
touch while being raised, or while being moved to the ramp.
Recommended setup procedure is as follows:
1.
Remove the trailer tie-downs, and the trailer lights. The tie-downs can be tied
together and used as the bow line for launching. Saves stowing them, and then
finding a bow line.
2.
Undo the trailer winch hook, and pull some slack so the hook will pass over the
bow roller. Leave it lying on the foredeck.
3.
Place the mast raising pole on the foredeck for use. Climb onto the bow using the
nonskid areas on the float bows as stepping points.
4.
Move aft alongside the mast undoing the mast ties (at each end) and the rigging
ties as you go.
5.
Lift the forward end of the mast and walk aft, rolling the mast on the aft mast
roller while checking that the rigging wires do not catch. Stop once the mast foot
is over the pivot brackets.
(C28 & C31 pivot brackets.)
