VERY IMPORTANT : ALWAYS ROTATE THE MAST FULLY SIDEWAY`S WHEN FOLDED.
For the SPORT version, when rotating the mast fully you have to slack the one side mast
controller and the mast controller on the mainsail boom – and you might have to slack the
lazy-jack a bit so the mast is free to turn by pulling the one side mast controller and make
sure the mainsail boom is pulled over to the same side as the backend of mast is also
rotated to.
The TOURING version also have to rotate the mast when moored in the harbour, and or
when the boat has the mast up on the trailer, the Touring version do not have this mast
controller to turn the mast, so here you have to use the special extra line/cam cleat system
that you will find in the boat and install this on the one side forward lifting pad eye and up
to the stainless mast tiller and force the mast to one side, slack the mast control line on
the mainsail boom and also the lazy-jack line on the mainsail boom so you can turn the
mast almost all over to one side.
ALLWAYS ROTATE THE MAST FULLY TO ONE SIDE WHEN THE BOAT IS IN
FOLDED POSITION IN THE WATER OR ON THE TRAILER WITH MAST UP.
SAILING BY AUTOPILOT
• IMPORTANT - depending on wind and wave conditions, using Autopilot in winds
exceeding 7 m/sec (15 knots) true wind is difficult and not recommendable.
•
Autopilot can be used in stronger winds, but only when sails are reefed even more
conservatively than the sail to wind diagram we recommend.
• Quorning Boats cannot be held responsible for any damages or problems caused by
sailing using Autopilot, as this at times can be unreliable.
• When using Autopilot, keep a good look out, as this boat moves faster than other
conventional yachts – not all other yachts are familiar with how fast these boats can
sail.
• Make sure that your Autopilot has been calibrated before use.
• The Autopilot is not calibrated neither from Quorning Boats nor from the shop,
where you have bought it.
