This procedure is better to perform before plastic
winglets have been installed.
Look into the sail from the wing tip. Tip folded batten
must be rested on the batten stop. The washout tip must
be installed. Check for any evidence of dents, deep
scratches, cracks or bends in the LE tube.
Be sure that the sail mount webbing is properly installed
in the end cap slot and safely and correctly secured with
the Velcro around the leading edge (Fig.28).
Along the trailing edge, left wing:
Check that there are no tears in the sail material along the trailing edge.
Check that all battens are properly secured.
Check that the outboard and inboard sprogs are properly secured in position supporting the transverse battens, and
that the sprog access zippers are properly closed. With the VG set tight, the sprog paddle slides forward on the
transverse batten. Make sure that at VG full tight the rear end of the paddle does not slide past the rear edge of the
transverse batten, or the system could malfunction.
Check that the bridles are properly engaged.
From the rear keel:
Check that the sweep wire is tight and secured on the hook on the keel tube. Check the proper alignment of the VG
ropes – they must not be twisted.
