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.
