I jist got a N5.7 and am trying to figure out the downhaul rigging, pics or tech drawings would be a great help. It is a boomless rig.
Also, do I need to put on a clew travler? I can see where the previous owner hung the rear main sheet system, but it seems that this position should change depending on conditions and direction. Right?

I hope someone familiar with rigging the Nacra 5.7 will respond, but since you are new to the boat, you might want to look at the rigging manual available here.
