TRIMMING
An agent carried out the first adjustments and set cable tension. After a few trips you will
have to do the final adjustment to obtain a correct vertical alignment alhwartships; it is
also important to keep the mast vertical in fore and aft direction when sailing.
Compensation adjustments may be required along side; a first bending of the mast in lon-
gitudinal is required :
- Classical mast:
• Slightly pre-bend the mast lengthwise, the middle of the mast bending forwards and
the head backwards.
• The pole shall be about half the section of the profile.
- In-mast roller furler:
• Pre-bend the mast lengthwise very slightly.
• The pole shall be smaller than the half of the profile section.
COMPENSATION ADJUSTMENT:
1 - This is a pushing spreader rig, so you will have to stretch the upper shrouds before the
backstay.
2 - Stretch all the rigging tighly ( the rigging must be a little bit loose when sailing in 15-
20 knot winds).
3 - When a perfect transverse and longitudinal alignment has been obtained, ease aft
lower shrouds with 2 turns of bottlescrew.
4 - Finish longitudinal adjustment by tightening the backstay bottlescrew to obtain good
stability of the forestay when sailing in 15-20 knot winds.
Secure all the bottlescrews with split pins and keep this trim throughout the sailing sea-
son.
Ease the backstay during the off-season.
