MAINSHEET TRAVELLER CAR:
Multihulls have normally a rule that goes: the mainsheet car must NEVER pass
the centre line to windward. If the wind is increasing when tacking upwind and
you find the mainsail has too much power and whether helm, try and ease out
the traveller, approx. 10-15 cm = 4-6" to leeward instead for slackening the
mainsheet and therefore not make the mainsail deeper. Doing this the boat can
take more wind without reefing. Eventually you can also ease off the sheet and
“open” the roach
further up in the mainsail.
IMPORTANT
–
when
jibing in stronger wind conditions, make sure to make a fully
controlled gibe, which means, set the traveller car in the centre and pull the
mainsheet fully in centre, as you gibe. After gibing, quickly ease off the mainsail
sheet again and set the boomvang/preventer again. If you are not careful when
gibing in strong winds, you can damage the mainsail or, even worst case, the
rigging.
If you have wheel steering system
–
it is even more important to make controlled
gibing
–
as the mainsheet can catch the wheel pedestal and damage this
–
so this
calls for even more focus when gibing in stronger winds.
SETTING AND FIXING THE BOWSPRIT:
The optional bowsprit has to be set manually.
You go forward and open the anchor locker
–
you push by hand the bowsprit
forward
–
check the tack line is always loose when this is done
–
when the
bowsprit is out of the tube in the port side of the anchor locker, you pull the
bowsprit towards the centre, and you fix the bowsprit in its position fitting that
you clearly see back in the anchor locker
–
and now you fix the bowsprit with the
stainless pin in the stainless fitting
–
and now very IMPORTANT
–
the SB side
bowsprit support line is automatic fixed at all times
–
whereas you HAVE to
remember to lock the port bowsprit side support by the aft forward wing.
If the bowsprit is not fixed here
–
the bowsprit will brake immediately or even,
make serious damage to the centre hull.
