Re: Rigging
FYI
The pdf shows only one sheet and one guy. The outline of the
spinnaker sail is the other line that you see, Let me add that file
is very old and outdated to the rigging on the boat. Sping 2004. All
of the rigging was replaced in the fall of 2004. I myself have not
raced on the San Juan. And only this summer found out that the
trimmer was behind the helmsman. This is when we realized we were
doing everything a little harder than required. My wife and myself
have been racing on an S2 7.9, she trims the sails and I am on the
forward deck or grind the genoa sheet in a blow. We have wrapped the
chute around the forstay, droped it in the water, hourglassed it,
undertrimmed, overtrimmed, and ripped it. It is sometimes nic to
sail at someone elses expence, Mark im sure you are finding that out
now. Chris Mckillip
