Reply to: Standing / lowering a mast, tightening rig, shorthanded -

[quote=Andinista]The most common way to tighten the rig is leaving one shroud loose so that you can pin the forestay easily, and then have your crew apply tension hanging on the trap to pin the shroud in the right hole. If you know the adjustment you can use the mainsheet to tighten the trap, moving the traveler out and securing it there so that it doesn't return to the center unexpectedly. The problem with that is that you cannot feel the tension applied.[/quote]
