[quote=om]Thanks for all the quick replies. So there is no way to take it out tomorrow w/o the main blocks? That's disappointing. Now to make sure I understand the sheet rigging: for the jib, I have two small harken pulleys attached to the jibsail. I thread the line from the jib block that is attached near the side shroud on the hull, through the pulley on the jib, back to the jib block cleat, across the tramp, through the other jib block cleat, up to the second pulley on the jibsail, back down to the block, and tie it off. How long is that line usually supposed to be, total? What is the threading direction for the main blocks? In the old manuals, the main blocks each had 3 pulleys. Is that called 8:1?[/quote]
