Lenny,m I hve some questions about you staysail arrangment you
wrote about in the newsletter. I got the deck plans for the 382
from Brewer, but quite a bit is slightly different than on my
boat. He shows the staysail track on the cabin top, but no
indication of where to put an inboard track on the deck. He has
a padeye for runners by the main chains and another way back on
the outer portaion of the deck, just forward of the cockpit
coming. So--exactly where is your inboard track--how far out
from the cabin side, for instance, and how long did you make it?
Also, how high up from the spreaders is the stay attachment for
the inner stay? How are the runners attached to the mast? Where
do the runners attach on deck and what sort of tackle do you use
to tighten them? I guess I will get a sail plan from Brewer, as
well, but I would like to hear your situation. Thanks. Also,
thanks again for doing this page and the newsletter. It is the
only "web" site I use, but I like it alot. WE all owe you a
debt of gratitude.
