but it would be nice to know what size block to get for the top mast (assymet) and how long and what thickness ropes we would need

you're probably better off waiting until u get the boat before you buy
anything. It's amazing how much it is possible to spend on bits. eg. it
cost me in the region of £75 to add the second wire to my boat and when
u think about it, it's only a few bits of wire and a ring! It all adds
up. Wait and see what the sails are like that come with it and learn to
sail it as it is before you start hacking it up too much. It's only
gonna be a really fast boat if the mast's pointing upwards

Yeah !! I think we should sail it a few times first, then muck about with it When we do start modifying it, instead of the system (like the fireball) with what looks like a topper kicker cleat on the trapeze wire, i want to change it to having a clam cleat on both wires because that felt much safer and easier to adjust whilst on the wire. |
