I finally had time, motivation, and decent weather all at the same time today, which allowed me to pull the M25 out of the boat-port, raise the mast, and raise the sails for the first time so I could do a test run of the running rigging etc. We just bought the boat last October, and haven't been able to get it wet yet ourselves. A couple things have me cocking my head and going.... wuuuuh. I guess I understand about compromises, but is this truly the way the jib (100%) sheets are routed? it seems....... odd, that they would run over the edge of the cabin like that, but I don't see any alternate way to do it. Is this the way other 25s are originally set up as well??
Similar puzzlement on the main sheets when the boom is out past 1/3rd or so and the lines are drug over the pulpit and safety lines. I guess it is what it is, but huummmm…………..
We've only sailed dinghies in the past, so this is a bit different for us.
Phil says to expect an early spring, so we're getting ready
