	Hi, I sail an RS200....and only being a little lightweight .....not very big muscles either!... .....I sometimes struggle with the cunningham on my boat which is at the moment a 4:1 purchase. Does anyone know how I could change it to a 8:1 purchase?......I know 1 extra single block should double the purchase?.......but it's not the same as the kicker...i.e it's not a cascade! I can't find any diagrams......or any articles! ......so if anyone can help me, PLEASE!...it's meant to be windy this Sunday and my arms are aching just thinking about it Thanks, kasey
