[quote=shortyfox]Both front and rear tramps have one bolt rope each that fit in tracks in the front and rear beams. All those holes are for lacing. Each tramp is laced on three sides using 3/16ths line. Start at the front and rear corners with two separate pieces for each tramp. There are variations but the most important thing is to get it tight, real tight. New tramps and new lacing will need to be retightened several times. Sunrise Yacht Products in St Pete makes them at a reasonable cost and might even have some in stock. Consider large storage pockets on the front tramp. There are some drawbacks to sailing with a front tramp and many advantages, but like everything else with boats, everything is a tradeoff. Yor best bet is to find someone actively sailing a 5.0 and see how it's rigged.[/quote]
