Hello, I am a printing press mechanic with access to a full metal shop and wood shop and welding bay... I just bought an O'day 22, and you may wince but I intend to set it up for 'singlehanding my way', with all sheets led aft to 2 winches and clutches... I am very bugged by the headsail folding over my pulpit and lifelines, so I am just now embarking on a modification which will raise the jib up to height of same, then snake it to a vanged jib club with roller reefing... I don't want a deck track, as I believe going downwind, wing on wing with my intention would be easier Anyone interested in following my progress say 'yeh' and I will post photos and diagrams as I go... Hell, anyone already having done same, please get in touch... At the moment I have few diversions, my car runs great, my wife loves it when I am out of the house, so progress might be solid... I can sometimes be had at herrons@telus.net ... I am off to polish some Stainless gidgets... SH.
