It's the one the sheet is attached to on a foresail, and the one the outhaul is attached to on the main. |
|
One must be careful not to cup the sail with too little tension on the foot of the sail by having the outhaul to loose. |
|
A good but currently illegal idea you can use to keep tension in the outhaul lines is to tie the clew inhaul shockcord between the clew cringle and the block. |
|
When the desired amount of sail is rolled in, use the outhaul to stretch the foot of the sail. |
|
To keep the engines started while the ship is moored o to leave any outhaul in such a way that it can hit the masts. |
|
If you have to use them for course racing try a bit less downhaul and use an adjustable outhaul to get the optimum upwind performance. |
|
In this position, you may use less outhaul for a fuller setting without easing the mid-leech. |
|
Reefing and unreefing is accomplished with a reefing line and an outhaul operated either from the cockpit or by working at the mast. |
|
If clew cringles are used they must not be thicker than 14 mm in order to fit the outhaul block. |
|
Whilst continuing to ease off the outhaul, roll in the desired amount of sail. |
|
The boom is fitted with an outhaul, and the mast with a linedriver winch which is operated by an endless furling line. |
|
Join the outhaul block to the clew of the sail. |
|
A self-tailing winch is also recommended for the clew outhaul line. |
|
By the third morning, we can pull the 5.7 together in minutes, jib bent on, sheets bowlined and figure-eighted, reefing lines and outhaul rigged, rudder hung. |
|
The outhaul shall be made of a rope not more than 1200 mm long. |
|
Once a section of rope is designated for a particular purpose on a vessel, it generally is called a line, as in outhaul line or dock line. |
