I think your right matey the control lines are in the right place on 960 

PBO mainsheet strop? Defo overkill.
Gold rudder stock?

Neptune - Yes thats the spliced foredeck cunningham arrangement. Ive left it how George had it when he had the boat and it seems to be in the right place for me.

 

TT - Your foredeck cunny looks a bit to far inboard. Was that not a nuisance for adjustment whilst on the wire?

And seeing as you seem to be the Pimpmaster Extraordinaire, do you have any other pimps that you could recommend for either helpfulness or just sheer pimpness?

I run mine under the wings and attached them to the u- boat as there is an decent sized exposed length there.

You have a german submarine under your boat? Doesn't that slow you down a bit?

Yea same here with the 14 atm. Not so worried about the cold but exam revision comes first.

That mainsheet looks like it should do the job very nicely.

Sounds good Ian knows his stuff.

Cheers George. Shes sailing well. Havent taken her out for
a while though. I miss it. The coldness and exam revision
have held me back for a couple of months which is a bummer.
Ian Turnbull is doing a musto skiff training event at our
club at the end of the month but other skiff type boats at
our club and neighbouring ones have been allowed to come
and join in so that should should boost my skills up again.
As soon as exams and stuff are over im gonna get some more
practice in. I want to start doing the circuit this year so
after the training ive got a month until the first event.
Which reminds me, i still need to join the 600 owners club
thing
