Subject: Backstay Adjustment
Info: (6095 views) Posted: Sunday 1-16-11 10:09:53 PM
I am going to modify my mainsheet to use a cockpit sole mounted blarney post. I was thinking it would be convenient to route the backstay adjustment under the sole and up through or just aft of the blarney post and use the blarney post to mount a swivel cleat. Has anyone used a method similar to what I have described? If so, would you share some details of your install and a photo or two? I looked at the Harken Duo Cam swivel cleat H216, but it seems like the cleating angle for the backstay might be to low when you are stilling on the edge of the cockpit combing? Any comments, advice warnings?
