Capri-18 Genoa Hardware

[Zach Heir]

I am about to purchase a 135% Genoa from Air force sails for my Capri-18. I want to know if anyone who has used a Genoa on Capri 18 know what sort of additional hardware I need for proper sail handeling. Or if they have any additional tips for using a genoa on a capri-18. Please Email me at funkychicken911@yahoo.com

Extra hardware

My C-18 came with the factory genoa. The winches, tracks, blocks and cleats are all moved down off the cabin top to the gunwales.However, I have seen an older c-18 where all they did was add track (on the gunwale, about at the edge of the cabin, 2 ft total), and a good standup block. The sheet comes through the block and back to the original winches.Ask away if you have more questions
