SAILS INSTALLATION
rig and sails
LAZY-BAG
You are advised to install the lazy-bag before the main sail.
- Spread out the lazy-bag on the deck,
- Put in the battens and close the batten pockets,
- Hank on the lazy-bag until you have the front part about level with the gooseneck,
- Fasten it at the tack with the strap provided,
- Stretch the lazy-bag from the back before you fasten the lazy-jacks,
- Tighten up on one side,
- Put the mainsail into the lazy-bag,
- Tighten up on the other side.
CLASSICAL MAINSAIL
The mainsail being on the deck :
- Screw the pins of the mast sliders for battens into the SDA cases,
- Put in the battens through the leech,
- Screw the box cap until you get the tension required (the tightening screw shall not
project beyond the sail),
- Don’t forget the small locking screw !
Put the mainsail into the lazy-bag.
- Set the boom ring in velcro about level with the clew,
- Fit the mainsail onto its slides, begin with the headboard and finish with the tack,
- Weather permitting, we advise you to hoist the mainsail gradually.
FURLING MAINSAIL
- Remove the hatch giving access to the furling mechanism.
- Spread out the sail on the deck.
- Fasten the head (strap) to the shackle of the upper swivel. Pay attention to the win-
ding direction.
- Insert the foot adjustment line into the clew block.
- Slowly hoist the sail. Guide the bolt rope (sometimes the groove leading edges may be
insufficiently
smoothed off).
- When the sail is up, tack it to the lower shackle.
- Gently sweat up the halyard.
- Refit the hatch.
- Furl the sail facing the wind and keeping a very slight tension on the foot. The main-
sail downhaul
and sheet shall be eased off.
When the sail is unfurled, adjust the halyard tightness.
RECOMMENDATION
Too much tightness may cause furling problems. After sailing, slightly slacken the
halyard.
