I've just put together a solcat and I'm not sure if my lines are all correct. I've followed the instructions as best as I can but a bunch of things are different on mine. The main sheet blocks in the instructions show two separate pulleys where my boom only has one, I also find it getting caught in the tiller. I am also slightly confused about the outhaul line.








Sorry I just realized the photos are a bit blurry, I dropped my phone in the water.

Referencing the pics as you have them listed: 1) It looks as tho the jib sheets are crossing over themselves. simply run them the other way thru the block on the jib so they run freely. 3) if both blocks are on a swivel then i don't see a problem. BUT, if only the bottom block is on swivel, i would change the run of the line. Starting at your bowline knot, i would run to the othe side,(looks front side in this pic) and to the other bottom sheave. Then up the rear side, around back down the front. Yould would want i think, the tail end of your main sheet to come down the front of the run to your block. less twisting of the whole thing.
