Reply to: Tips on how to tighten tramp.

[quote=HULLFLYER]I learned a trick in the mid 70's from a New Zeland sailor that I still use today. He started by tightening the rear lacing first and used 2 sets of vise grips, this method takes 2 people. Rear lacing is in 2 pieces, start at one side using one set of vise grip to pull and the other to clamp off what you get. Do both side and repeat until it is a tight as you like. Then turn the boat on its side to do the middle lacing. Start at the front and use the same method, by pulling down you will have a lot more leverage, repeat until it is as tight as you like. I have never been able to get a tramp as tight by using any other method.[/quote]
