First sail on our 1976 Hobie 16. Reefed main and no jib. The wind was strong and we still managed to do a violent pitchpole.

First sail. Notice reefed main. I didn't realize at the time that the knot had come off the upper becket and wedged in the lower block. It was a 4:1 purchase at this time.

Lacing that I did on my tramp. It takes lots of line, but it sure is nice, since the holes are so small.
