GENNAKER
Remove the forward lifelines when using the gennaker (risk of
damage).
Before getting under the way, take advantage of a windless period of
time and hoist the gennaker.
- Secure the swivel to the gennaker headboard.
- Secure the furling system to the tack clew.
- Put the furling system to the boomsprit with a snap shackle.
- Secure the halyard to the headboard swivel.
- Hoist the gennaker.
Use the furling system line to furl or unfurl the gennaker.
Gennaker sheets:
- Secure the sheets to the gennaker clew.
- Have the sheets go on the outside of the stay and shrouds and above
the guardrails.
- Make fast the sheet leading blocks to the chainplates.
- Reroute the sheets to the genoa sheet winches.
WARNING
In some sailing trims, the gennaker may hide the
fore navigation lights.
WARNING
Unrig the gennaker when not in use (risk of being UV
damaged and inadvertently unfurled).
