has anyone put a larger jib on theyre solcat? also was wondering if anyone knew the dimentions of the jib the luff/foot ect... of the factory jib,
was thinking about putting a larger jib on the boat for lighter wind days, a guy at my marina added a second bridal/mast bracket to his hobbie 18. and he added what he calls a screecher, he also has his set up on a furler. is that a route that is pos? or shouldnt the load be put that far forward of the extisting factory forstay/bridal position.
also does anyone have a picture on how the down hauls are run on theyre mast. my boat isnt set up with either. ive been using extra rope for now.
also with the newer boats like the nacras ect, could i take a sail from a more modern cat and install it on the solcat. would be neat to use one of those new sails with the squared off tops of the sail.
thanks,
eric
there are pictures of the boat in the beauty and art section
