RIGGING INSTRUCTIONS

BEAMS

Lay the two hulls into the launching trolley cups bow first. This

will hold the hulls in the correct position to connect to the main

and rear beam.

8x lock nuts, washers and 8mm x 15mm s/s bolts are supplied.

You wll require assisstance to bolt the beams into the hulls. The

main beam has a ball deck step and is shaped to fit snugly into

the front socket of the hulls. The rear beam is smaller with a

traveller attached and a row of small plastic wheels along it’s

length. Again this is shaped to fit perfectly into the rear beam

sockets with the white plastic wheels facing aft.

Feed the bolts into

the holes in the hulls

going through the

washer and then

attach lock nut and

tighten.

Attach the main beam

first followed by the

rear beam.

TRAMPOLINE

A. Remove the beam end cap from the main beam.

B. Remove slugs from front beam.

C. Ensure that the 5mm glass tube is inserted into the sleeve

that runs along the front of the trampoline.

Insert 5mm glass tube and trampoline into the main beam.

Then slide across the length of the beam until the trampoline is

positioned centrally.

D. Re-insert slugs to the right and left of the trampoline

to hold it in position.

E. Re-affix beam end caps to secure trampoline in position.

LACING THE TRAMPOLINE

A. Insert 10mm glass rod into rear of trampoline.

B. Tie loop on end of trampoline lacing line using a bowline knot.

C. Then slide the loop on the lacing line over the end of the

10mm glass fibre rod. You can then begin to lace the trampoline

onto the rear beam.

D. Then (1) feed line under rear beam, (2) over the top of the 1st

nylon wheel, (3) on to next wheel, (4) over the top of 2nd wheel,

(5) Then forward under the beam, (6) and down through the eye

in the rear of the trampoline around the 10mm rod, (7) then back

under beam...

E. ... (8) over the top of the 2nd wheel and (9) on to 3rd wheel.

Then continue lacing process until you reach the final nylon

wheel on the end of the rear beam.

F. Once at the end of the beam. Go back to first loop and tight-

en the section between the first wheel and the second. Then

tighten the loop between the second and third and so on.

G. With the tail of the rope, feed under beam, (10) loop it over

the far end of the 10mm glass fibre rod and then (11) back

under the beam.

H. (12) Round the last nylon wheel and (13) tie off between the

last wheel and the last but one.

NOTE; THE TRAMPOLINE LACING WILL NEED TO BE RE-

TIGHTENED FROM TIME TO TIME TO ENSURE THAT THE

TRAMPOLINE REMAINS TAUT.

ATTACH TRAMPOLINE TO FRONT BEAM

A. Tie the front end of trampoline onto slug on front beam.

B. Pull tight, so end pulley wheel is tight in the back end of

the trampoline.

C. Tie off to slug using a half hitch with a knot against it to

stop it slipping.

Repeat this on the opposite side.

ATTACH TRAMPOLINE TO REAR BEAM

A. (1) Attach trampoline tensioning lines to the deck eye on

rear beam.

B. (2) Feed forward & through pulley wheel at rear of trampoline.

C. (3) Back through deck eye. Tension as tight as possible.

Then repeat process, this time through the stainless steel ring

fixed to the back of the trampoline (4-5).

(6) Back through deck eye. Again, tension as tight as possible.

Tie off with a round turn and two half hitches.

Then repeat on opposite side. Ensure trampoline is as taut as

possible to ensure a firm platform.

TIGHTEN CENTRE OF TRAMPOLINE

A. Tighten centre of trampoline by (1) feeding rope through

deck eye left-to-right, then (2) up to and through right trampoline

eyelet, (3) through left eyelet and back down (4) through deck eye

(left to right).

B. (5-6) Then feed right hand tail up through right trampoline

eyelet and left hand tail up through left trampoline eyelet, tighten

and tie off with a reef knot.

roughly in the correct position ready to be attached once the

mast is upright.

E. Next is the jib halyard, the jib halyard comes in two parts (5).

then (9) tie off on eye. Repeat on other side and pull tight till there

is a slight bend in the spinnaker pole.

E. (1) Take line from the chute mouth and (2) tie off on to the eye

on the front of the hull.

SPINNAKER HALYARD

A. To secure one end of the spinnaker halyard, tie to bridle

for time being.

B. Take other end of spinnaker halyard down mast and through

pulley on back of spinnaker pole running from back of boat

forwards.

Remove the rope that is securing the double block to the

spinnaker pole (this is for shipping purposes only).

SPINNAKER HALYARD continued

C. (1) Feed spinnaker halyard forward and (2) through double

block and then (3) back to double cleat on front crossbeam aside

mast foot.
