Tuna! (was Poor man's Air Conditioning)
"Wayne.B" wrote in message ... We routinely hoist the RIB dinghy, 20 hp outboard, fuel and gear using the mast and boom, probably in the 400 to 500 pound range all up. Our mast and boom are more heavily stayed than most. We just ordered a fiberglass dinghy from Dyer Boats. It's the only one I found that will fit on the aft cabin cradle and is of the style acceptable to Mrs. E. http://www.dyerboats.com/dyer_midget.html The boat was rigged with a single block on the boom and I knew that wouldn't hack it as there would be no mechanical advantage. I started searching the Internet for some multiple blocks, then, lo and behold, while rummaging around on the boat I found an almost brand new triple block setup, complete with new line. It should do the job very well. Eisboch |
