Anything else that cannot be missing on a modern (?) dinghy rig?


some things to consider.....

preventer? (eg., boom vang)

how would the main be sheeted?
center sheeting or transom?
would it need a traveller?

all the jibs I've seen have had adjustable fairleads.
some way of tensioning the jib luff so it doesn't sag.
