I'd like to rig up a harness for hiking out. I dont have a harness, and have only seen a few diagrams for boats other than the CAPRI 14.2. Does anyone have good pictures to share showing the harness rigging? I am considering buying a Windsurf board or KITE surf board harness and rigging it myself. I am not sure however, what the gear is like, what thickness wire to use, and how precisely to configure the hook system.
Every sport needs a pioneer and I'm too broke...
I'm going to try a traditional trapeze rig, attached high up on the mast, and use a kite waist-harness for support.Winston, you might want to attach your hiking harness line and eyestrap to the cockpit floor like they do in certain keelboats (Yngling and Soling at least) so you don't have to touch it when you tack or gybe.

Will be stellar if it works. I think it should. Keep us posted!
