More boat pron:
 
Sorry, no sails up pics yet.
 
Did not get time, as you can see from these pics it is starting to get dark..
 
mast rotation comes up from under the tramp.
 
 
Then the tails are lead to the side decks thru a small block, then to a cleat
 
 
Tail then continues thru the deck tramp eyes - thinking here is that if I pull by the cleat, it somes out, but if I pull behind the first eye, I pull more roatation out of the mast.
 
 
Having looked at the pics, I've set this up wrong as I need the rope to go one more ring back before going down as I will not be able to let off any rotation with the plates up.
 
Double Ratchamatics, Kite goes to aft one first.
 
 
Forestay bridal is about 7 cm from the top of the boat on the inside.
 
 
Mast up with Boom and spanner:
 
 
2:1 trapeze adjusters:
 
 
Not much clutter up front without the jib:

Dropped fitting on the bow - the bridals do not enter the hulls at the top, they are a few CM doen the inside of the hull thus pole can be lower), and thus higher aspect kite and jib.
