Babystay and running backstay
While sailing upwind, it is very important to control the mast bend
keeping an eye on the pumping (rhythmical longitudinal bending)
of the rig.
It is recommended to always keep a slight tension on the Baby Stay,
epecially if the pumping of the mast is particularly strong in a formed
seaway (state 4 or up).
Tuning
The stays must be tuned to reduce and stop the longitudinal pumping
of the mast and, at the same time, allow the right amount of bend to
the mast.
From the mast collar on deck to the top of the mast, the mast bend
should have a maximum chord of 15 cm. For the mainsail roller furler
rig (Opt.), the maximum chord should not exceed 10 cm. especially
during the furling and unfurling of the mainsail to avoid unwanted
strain and ware on the sail panels and leach.
Max
10
÷
15 cm.
Mast bend
The natural bend of the
mast (exagerated in the
diagram) must be even and
regular.
From the mast collar on
deck to the top of the mast,
the maximum chord mast
not excede 10
÷
15 cm
Please note that “tensioning “ the rig does not mean stressing the rig.
The stays only need to block the mast’s oscillations caused by it’s
inertia and should not be over stressed.
