Launching

Launching

Daggerboard:

With the boat in shallow water or secured to a dock,

slide the daggerboard into the daggerboard trunk as much as water
depth will allow. The thin edge should be aft and the handle up.
Stretch the shockcord around the aft edge with the plastic tubing
against the edge of the board; this helps keep the board at a desired
height.  

Rudder:

Push the rudder blade down as much as water depth will

allow. Once it is all the way down, tighten the downhaul line and
secure it to the cleat.

Unrigging

As you approach shallow water when you come in from sailing, pull
up the daggerboard halfway. Untie the rudder downhaul and pop up
the rudder.  After you are secured to the dock or standing in shallow
water, pull the daggerboard out of its slot and lay it down in the bot-
tom of the boat. Make sure your mainsheet will run free, and release
the vang. To remove the rudder, depress the stop and pull it off.

Once the boat is on land, make sure the headstay is still tied off to
the bow shackle before dropping the jib.  You can leave the boat
rigged unless it is traveling; just make sure both halyards are secured.
Remove the boom and roll it up with the mainsail.  When unstepping
the rig, leave the shroud adjusters attached to the shrouds to prevent
damaging them while cartopping.

Sail care tips

All gear should be rinsed, if sailing
in salt water, and the sail should be
allowed to dry before it is rolled up.
Removing the battens from the
pockets between uses will increase
the life of the elastic that holds
them in.  Make sure the window is
not creased when you fold the sail.
