[quote=catmodding]@ Bob, Yes,I did put footstraps on the hulls behind the rear-beams. No extra lines to keep me on board, to dangerous in my opinion. Also my trapeze-hook is one of the "open" type. On a downwind track I will not go out on the wire when the waves are high or choppy, I'm not that kind of hero yet, maybe in the future... Also have the adjustable trapeze. At certain wind-angles on my hometown lake, the wind-force can go up to 5 Bf without developing any major waves,these are the moments I reach the speed mentioned. Other than that I removed the 4-way jib system, it is to complicated when you're on you're own , it hurts my knees and ruins my expensive dry-suit. Gain in speed is minimal for what it brings on complexity on board. Removed the second trapeze-wire for a even cleaner boat. Did put the cleats on the sheet-blocks in the "up" position, difficult to cleat, easy to uncleat. Will try to post some pics this weekend. Regards, Andre[/quote]
