Subject: Floating jib leads

Matt,

Wow that is awesome! A great collection of pictures from various boats.

After looking at the document, I have a couple of questions.

1. For the system on Peaches, I am assuming there is a set of blocks / cleats below to be able to adjust under load? 2. For the genoa lead on El Raton, is there a block closer to the bow? The picture cuts off at the edge of the window. 3. Does anyone have a list of materials to construct these? Yes the pictures tells the story but easier if someone has already done this.

Thanks again Matt! Great job.

Don

:: Hope this helps.
