I would love to have that also!! Maybe a better copy of the diagram too if someone has it stashed somewhere.

some years ago when i got my 1982 5.2 it came with a standard manual for nacras made about that time, it's scanned and online here in the technical gallery where the pages can be view individually or downloaded as a pdf

it has the same diagram but came with no key

i presume it was for ordering parts by phone through the dealer, ie "i want 1 each of the 100 + 99 battens" (on my 5.2 i think when measuring their flex characteristics/weight that there were only 2 weights)

in fact it is the same diagram as both have the same japanese comment handwritten where the forestay meets the bridal "kono pin desu/ this pin please"

you could make up a key by cross referencing with the nacra old boat parts list on their website i guess

Darn, I was hoping that there was a key that went with the diagram. Hard to figure out what they are talking about in the manual when you don't know what the part is called. I think I have it all figured out now but it would have been nice.

That's hilarious actually, you have no idea how many times I read that manual and thought to myself. 'I wonder what the Japanese notes say? I bet they would answer the questions I have.'

Regards,
Dave
