[Rhodes22-list] UPS results, sheeting

[Jay Friedland]

Mark, Mary Lou, et al,
I joined the recipients today and anxious to find if others had any 
chance to fly the sail. After Mark's initial response, are the current 
jib cars adequate, or per Michael's purchase of cheek blocks, is stern 
mounting the only way to go? (Michael, I hope Stan found them on his 
desk, and remembered to put them on.) Sailnet has inexpensive snatch 
blocks, made for them by Garhauer, Series 25 and 30, that would seem to 
do the job. Is anyone familiar with these, and is this the way to go 
for quick mounting and then running to the standard winch and clam 
cleat?

Mark, attaching the sail at the dock and strapping it to the mast, 
right now seems the preferred way for single-handing. Has it worked for 
you?

So far the closest I've gotten is the smell of a new sail-hope to set 
it free by the weekend.
