Jib for a Phantom

I once had a thing called a Zoom which had been abandoned at a distant club. It had two mast positions and two shroud positions, one for single sail and one for a jib as well. It came with no sails and so I fitted an old lightning main and a laser two jib. Rig tension when single sailing was achieved with an old jib wire with a 2x2x1 and a trap adjuster and when using 2 sails I fitted a halliard rack
on the jib halliard. To tension it all up you could haul in on the forestay, hook on the rack and away you went. Well, not me but my mate did, and it seemed quite effective. Very laser like. Sold it on ebay! Has anyone ever seen one? It was a very professional moulding.

A self tackers an interesting idea, though I suspect that I would have a temptation for it to go from 'just for the kids to play with' to a 'the winds quite light, I can manage it by myself and hike a bit harder'

Theres also an old broken fibreglass mast at the back of the dinghy park, and I've got a raggy aysmmetric off an MX-Ray..........

That's something I've thought about, perhaps with a self tacking arrangement as there is already a fair bit to do when tacking.

No my phantom north sail looked nothing like a fireball main

Having had a further thought on it, I don't think the mast (needlespar) actually belongs to the boat as the stays are too short to reach the plates without the use of a long shackle. Maybe it is from a fireball as the main seems to fit it ok.

The boat is a very old one anyway (#490 ish) and a previous owner obviously decided it wasn't heavy enough and has covered the entire hull in a layer of grp.

Guess that makes it a composite hull

Was a cheap buy, more to see if I liked the class (love it!) before shelling out for a newer boat and never intended anything more than pottering about anyway.
