I posted new album with all my rigging up along with the sails if anyone cares to take a gander. My j-22 backup main is in there too.
Glad I put my new main up. I found that it was cut to long. I had to drop the boom down about 6" which surely eliminated any hope of getting a Bimini under it. I don't really think I could have gotten a Bimini under anyways. The original was only 4 feet long and was all they to the back of the cockpit. I think previous owner put one up the only way he could. Earlier in the summer I had also found that the main sail foot was cut to long so I built 11' boom (original is 9') out of an old hobie 14 mast I had laying around. If you look real close you'll see the hobie mast head that is now used for the out haul:wink3:Anyhow, that eliminates any hope of putting short bimini in the back. I'll just have to where a big hat. On the bright side, I have more sail area:whoa:
