Ok I think I have worked it out--to send the pics ? I hope
Here are some pics of the modifications that I have carried out--
The roller reefing has two advantages: 1st /it is very quick to pull in and out--but I have to over come the 2 ropes getting tangled: 2nd/ you can reef the sail in a lot and still sail with a decent wind ( I was sailing in 25 knot winds with 18" of sail out)
Notice the downhaul on the sail is now connected to the mast above the two rollers I have used a rubber hose clamp and a plastic cup hook (a bit rough) for the down haul.
I have had to use two rollers because I found it was easier to pull the sail out with one and in with the other. (they are boat trailer rollers--neoprene-- I cut one inhalf and drilled them out with a 22mm hole saw)
Most of the time there is no trouble tacking or gybing without pedaling, occasionaly I have to grab the paddle ( maybe beacause the rudder is not big enough?)
I find having a cleat to lock in the sheet off the main sail very handy.
Note the wooden dowel 3/4" dia' and about 5ft long ( with a screw in the end) to hold the sail out when sailing down wind, if the wind isn't too strong.
There is a pic of the elec' out board bracket, which is very easy to attach.
If any one wants to know more give us a cooee.
