    I’ve just measured my Genoa – 2.2m approximately, so that makes it a full sized one.  Good.

    I’d go down to the pen & investigate the hoisted sail & track positioning this afternoon, but there’s a good F4 blowing 🙁

    OLiver,

    Thank you for this info. I’ll try & get down there to have a play & see .  I’ve printed off the rules so will measure my genoa.

    Many thanks

    Oliver,

    I have just fund your gallery photos of this. One the metal tiller, the clamcleat as at the inboard end and the wooden one has it part way along.  Any advantages/disadvantages of either position?

    And any guidance on appropriate rope?  I don’t know much about the ins & outs, especially for small control lines.

    Thank you,

    Jonathan

    er, that second line came from where?

    Apologies must have ctrl-v’d it somehow!

    Hi Mike,

    Welcome aboard.  Like you, I somehow suddenly acquired my GP14 – all a bit hazy.

    and yours was an earlier one than mine so no guarantee that they would be in the same place.

    Oliver,

    Thanks for this. I like the look of the auto-release clamcleat. Two separate lines makes more sense to me and I would colour code them.

    I’m in the process of glueing a crack in the blade, so have an opportunity to fettle the pivot action.

    Thank you for your time.

    I know it’s an old thread, but please don’t only move to FB. Whilst I am reluctantly on FB, I also dislike it for a host or reasons.  One of which is the fact that the search is pitiful and it is really hard to find any historical posts.
