Dumb question dept: H19... has a backstay?

[Phil Herring]

The mid-90's was the era of the hybrid rig, part B&R / part traditional. But the 19, did that boat have a backstay? I can't find any data either way.

Thanks!

Don't feel bad Phil, I suffer from CRS all the time.

I had a 1995 H19 and it did not have a back stay. It was a B&R rig...had a topping lift. Crazy Dave tried to teach me how to sail it....Now that's a story for many beers...
