Greg- Madness arrived today. She looks good, just needs a little love to get her back up to snuff. Can you explain the spaghetti under the foredeck? A block...
I made a diagram of what is under the deck. Please excuse the crudity of it. http://www.f-64.org/diagram1.jpg The block with the question mark next to it is...

Well I put the stick up today and a lot became clear. The extra tackle under the foredeck tensions the forestay. Makes sense to me now that you slack the...
You probably should induce some bend in the mast by pulling the uppers on that will make the luff curve in the sail and mast match better. Also go get some ...
Ah good idea, I didn't think to bend the mast to match the luff curve. I looked at as many rigged boat pictures as I could online and now I see what these...
