st picked up a 21se and plan to replace the rigging with a set from salty dog. I know this has been discussed many times over but I’d like to add shroud extenders to assist with righting.
I prefer the hyfield lever for ease of reconnecting the rig but they only extend about 3”, I don’t think that would be enough to allow for solo right even with a bag, am I wrong?
The Hobie extenders would do the trick but getting them reconnected on the water looks sketchy. I was thinking I could add some micro blocks and cleat to the shrouds to add tension while I reconnect. Has anyone ever tried this?
What are opinions on a mast bob? Logic assumes an extra 5lb at 33’ takes an additional ~165lbs to right, is this correct? I’ve read bill404 has a self inflating vest up top which sounds like a great solution.
