ADJUSTMENTS
Your mast will have been pre-set both by the boatyard and by the
mast manufacturer during the first mast stepping.
However, after a few sea trips, the mast should be reset once the
cables have "given" to their full length.
Proceed as follows:
- Slacken the lower shrouds.
- Tighten the topping lift or use the mainsail halyard in its place.
- Loosen the lazy-jacks.
- Take up the upper and lower diamonds, evenly in order to obtain a
straight profile. The mast should now curve evenly towards aft.
- The forestay is pre-adjusted to have an angle of 2.6° to aft.
- Tension the backstays by tightening the turnbuckles with a wrench
and a 30 cm pipe (check that the mast head is centered).
- Take the tension back up in the lower shrouds by turning the
turnbuckles by hand.
- Take the lazy-jacks back up.
- The mast should remain curved towards aft.
Under sail with a 20 knot apparent cross wind, it is normal for the
leeward rigging to be slightly slack; if necessary, thread a shock cord
between the backstay and the lower shroud leeward to stop any
flapping.
z MAINTENANCE
Before each trip, carefully inspect the mast from top to bottom.
Periodically check the tension of the rigging and the lock nuts or pins
for tightness (you should check them for the first time after a few days
sailing in all types of weather).
Secure and lubricate the turnbuckles with tallow, graphite grease or
other (never use silicone).
Check the tightness of the turnbuckles.
Inspect the turnbuckles for possible wear (due to chain-plate chafe if
the rigging is slack).
Change any shroud or stay with severed wires or kinks.
Regularly check the chain-plates for wear.
RECOMMENDATION: Your LAGOON dealer can carry out all
maintenance operations.

DANGER
To hoist a crew member up to the top of the mast,
make a bowline with the halyard directly on the
bosun's chair ring (never use the halyard shackle or
snap shackle).
Do not hoist a crew member when sailing in heavy
weather.
