CRUISING SQUARE TOP MAINSAIL (optional extra)
The cruising square top mainsail halyard is lashed on the eyelet of the
sail, not on the headboard traveller.
The square top will be properly set automatically once the sail is
hoisted up.
FITTING OF THE MAINSAIL CRUISING SQUARE TOP SYSTEM
Refer to the drawing on the opposite page.
- Remove the pin of the headboard car (mark A).
- Make the 2 strand tackle as per the drawing on the opposite page.
- Put back the headboard car pin (mark A), adding the sheave.
The length of the headboard line is adjusted to the right dimension for
a new sail at the sailmaker’s.
The lashing (mark B) makes possible to make up for the possible
lengthening of the rope due to ageing.
Nota: this system is patented by the INCIDENCES sailmaker.
