ZAX Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 Hope some of the sloop sailors read this forum. I have recently setup ZAX as a sloop and find that it is difficult to stop the leech fluttering in stronger winds. Reading through the rules there is only basic measurements for the jib and it seems nothing stopping the use of stiffeners in the leech to stop this fluttering. The jib measurements are just listed as; Luff 4170mm Leech 4000mm Foot 1820mm Any comments/suggestions on setting up a sloop rigged maricat?

Humungus Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Well well John, it looks like the other sllop sailor don't want to let you in on there secret. You will just have to sail cat rigged. so I can give you a flogging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
