Are you going to tow the Pop up behind, or in front of the boat?

That's kind of a personal question, isn't it?

You would think so, but he's the one posting pics on the
Internet.

SV

I installed one line reefing systems for the main and mizzen. Guess
they just tied thru the reefing points before. Just rigged up a single
line with side mounted blocks, one for both points on the mizzen.. and
3 on the main. Makes reefing down quick and easy.

Did you use any block?

Yes on both sides of each each reefing point, the only place friction
could happen is thru the grommets, if you reef early.. not under a load
you have next to zero friction.

I find sigle line reefing adds too much
friction. I've ripped a few bails and things out because of friction.
I've though a few properly placed low friction blocks would be a
big help.

I don't see a black band on that mast. How do you know
when to stop hoisting sail?

Getting a boat with a mast raising system.
The Seaward DVD arrived yesterday, btw, with some
instruction on the use of
same, as well as details of construction. I don't know
when I'll get to the
Bahamas, but I like the idea that the boat was designed
specifically to
shall shallow back waters but still make the occasional
jaunt across open
ocean to the islands.
