Hello there i am a Young Sailor and need some help with rigging questions for a Invitation 3.8 12 ft.
I am fairly new to sailing have received my White Sail II, and trained on 420s on a lake, i purchased a second hand Invitation Laser built by Bombardier. It was bit beat up had a few holes after sitting on a front yard for a few seasons. Purchased it from the wife of the owner who passed away a few years back and boats(also a Catamaran missing a few parts).
Ive Fixed the wholes and built a new Dagger board. The biggest issue i seem to be having is Rigging with my Main sheet.
I am missing a few parts:
Boom Vain
Nothing to keep sail attached to shaft of boom.( not end of boom but shaft)
proper blocks for rigging.
Knowing how to rig main sheet
I have one main block, attaches to floor of boat. is a ratchet block with a Harken Cleat attached to it.
Sorry for such a long post, but ive been trying it out for few summers and havent seem to been able to figure it out thought i would look for some help.
any help would be greatly appreciated
