I have a 78 Tequila Sunrise that I rescued last summer as my first Hobie, and can't quite remember how to put the main sheet lines back in through the blocks. The diagram in the on-line manual is for the style that's been in use for some time since. Any old diagrams out there to help me? Thanks, Don Rookie |

I did a quick forum search... gotta know the lingo "reeve". There are a few threads on this one. ![]() |

Remember that the block with the becket goes on the rear bale. That is, the block that you tie the line to, should be on the rear bale. |

The first picture is the better way to go. You can sheet tighter before things start binding up. |

Here is a diagram I got somewhere. Probably here at this forum. http://picasaweb.google.com/100474473357230810875/Hobie?feat=directlink |

Since I have the newer style boom with one bale I just attach both pulleys to that and it works fine |

Thanks everyone! Exactly what I was hoping for. As it turns out, I guessed on the rigging and it matches the first picture, except for the final tie. Now I just need some decent weather to get out there! |
