Jib Halyard Thanks Ed, Yes, that's the way I have it rigged. I'm going to give it a try this weekend and see how it works for me. Thanks again to everyone for the input! Lance

Jib Halyard Thanks for the reply guys! I just want to be sure I am seeing this right: So you use two lines at about 15ft each. That means that when you drop the jib the block will actually go up to about the height of the jib block up on the mast. Every time I raise the jib I will need to rig...

Thanks Robert, I am going to try rigging it like that. I get some pretty good winds here on the lake so I think it will help me flatten out the jib. Lance

Thanks Spoons, I guess it is a matter of preference then, and what your wind conditions are. I was thinking of trying the rigging as I read it in the diagram. If I don't like it I can always go back to the single line. Thanks again for your reply, Lance

Thanks Greg! I was reading the rigging diagram incorrectly.

I recently purchased a Capri 14.2, sail number 995. The Jib halyard is one line. I noticed in the manual that it should be rigged differently, using two lines and a block on the port side of the mast. any suggestions on which one I should use? Thanks
