Subject: Floating jib leads
Info: (14522 views) Posted: Thursday 4-24-14 03:40:14 PM
Hi Don -

1 - yes the peaches systems has a lot Going on down below and I'd love to capture that. Maybe this weekend at Vallejo.

2 - if I am not mistaken Raton runs a standard jib car system but maybe Ray can comment.

3 - we could capture measurements / bill of materials when we take pictures of boat systems in the name of sharing and helping owners optimize their boats without having to reinvent the wheel ea time.

Matt

:: 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
::
:: :: Don - I had some pictures of a few of the options so
:: :: consolidated into a little presentation for you with
:: :: some my thoughts.
:: ::
:: :: Would be really interested to get other people's views
:: :: as I may not be aware of other alternatives or all the
:: :: pros/cons that are out there.
:: ::
:: :: I am hoping we can get pictures / commentary on a number
:: :: of systems (forestay fine tune, backstay, main sheet,
:: :: trav, etc....), consolidate and share as a reference for
:: :: people looking to make changes and for out of town boats
:: :: who dont have alot of other examples to look at.
:: ::
:: :: Hope this helps.

:: ::
:: ::
:: ::
:: :: :: I was looking at updating the tracks for the jib and was
:: :: :: wondering if people have converted to a floating lead
:: :: :: system for the jib.
:: :: ::
:: :: :: If so does anyone have pics or a description of what
:: :: :: they used.
:: :: ::
:: :: :: Thanks,
