Reply to: 1981 GCat 5.0 Jib and Main Sheet Rigging Pics

[quote=fxloop]I have a stock G-Cat 5.0 that I love. It's a super simple boat to rig. The main is a loose footed setup but you need a boom. It works fine without one but it's slower. The jib is a lot like my Hobie 20 - zippered up the forestay, but it likes to be a bit loose - small diameter line at the bridals barely snug - because when you sheet in the main hard you didn't want to bust the zipper on the jib. There's no 4 way system. There's a 6" wire at each jib block that lets you pull them in with a simple jam/block cleat in the middle of the tramp for up wind. Loosen it for downwind and both blocks travel out and up to fill up the jib. Great design. If you're going to Juana's good time regatta find me. I'll have my G-Cat there on the beach. Take it for a spin![/quote]
