Post subject: | Interesting find |
After a race I beached behind a tiger and only afterwards it hit me with what I had seen. May be old or new news to someone The downhaul was attached to the crews trapeze, very clever. Mine was attached to sidestay, an issue when on trapeze - simple solution. The spinnaker cleat was on the mast instead of crossbar, ideal because easier to stand than kneel. Plus the downhaul/uphaul ran through 4 pulleys in a square around the tramp. No lockup when pulling spin down. Ideal mods to be done. |

The down haul to the trap is pretty standard in the tiger. The mast mounted spin halyard is now a standard. standing while raising is alot faster, and no rotational pressure from the x-bar that way. The down haul / uphaul sound interesting. Mine is through 1 pulley in front and 1 in back. |
