Prindle 16(?) trapeze rigging.  Bottom

  • I recently purchased a cat, had no name on it or identifying marks but was told that it was a prindle. It's 15 foot has two ports (middle and back) on each hull and a 25 foot mast. My brother and I are redoing all the hardware and painting at the same time while its apart and everything is going to plan except figuring out how to rig the trapeze. I'm not sure if were missing any pieces to it but Here is a pic of what we have :

    That is all the hardware we got for the trapeze, if anyone can help out with how to hook it up or what other parts we need it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks All.

  • Prindles only had 2 ports, one in each hull. Post some pics of the boat if you get a chance. What you have is a trap system that is adjustable and was probably upgraded along the way.
  • I agree with hullflyer, Unless they added ports later.

    I does not look like my Prindle 16's Trap rigging. There is a great diagram in the tech part.
  • Here are some shots of the hulls.

    its all in pieces right now as we are painting and redoing the hardware. the hulls are connected via two tubes that bolt right through the hulls the tramp is secured by awning track and the ports were not added, they are original to the boat. once we get it painted and back together i can post more pics if no one can figure these out. here is a shot before we took it aparthttp://inlinethumb30.webshots.com/45981/2360974680104341373S500x500Q85.jpg
