Rigging & 

Fine Tuning Guide

 

RIGGING:

 

1) Slide the mast through the luff sleeve. 

Note: slide the mast 

above the cams (do not attach the cams to the mast yet). 

 

2) Attach the mast extension and thread the line through the 
cleat. Do not tension the downhaul yet, just cleat the line off.

3) Attach the boom and outhaul to the boom length that is 
printed on the sail.

Quick Tip:

 Attach your boom at, or below the center of the boom 

cut-out to prevent the top of the boom cut-out from getting caught 
on the boom while downhauling.

4) Attach the cams to the mast by pushing down on the batten 
with the palm of your hand, approximately 12" (30cm) from 
the luff sleeve, and snap the cam onto the mast with your 
other hand.

 

Quick Tip:

 If the cam is difficult to put on the 

mast, check that the batten tension webbing is 
loosened until the Velco touches the buckle.
