Hi

I purchased Harken Fiddle Block - 40mm / 471 Carbo-Cam and Harken 40 mm Double Carbo Block w/ 1 Ratchet but am unable to locate information regarding rigging.

Hi, I have the same set of blocks and they work great, i looped the rope end at the fiddle block and sewed it together with sail thread and heat shrink tubed over the joint instead of a bulky knot, although its kind of a hack its strong and works well. Good luck

Can you send me a picture of how to route the lines. I can't figure it out. Thank You

FirstWave - I think you going for this setup: https://www.murrays.com/product/harken- ... et-system/ There are a couple pictures of it setup. It also looks like you need the 281 micro eye strap. I ended up tying a figure eight knot for use in the eye strap as my other knots were rubbing on the line.

Wavesurf57 - What size line are you running? I am running 8 mm and thinking of going smaller as it seems a little tight. After purchasing I see different sites have the maximum line size listed as 6mm, 8mm or 100 mm for the same part.

This is a good video on rigging a 6:1 mainsail system
