| | Help............Rigging and boom - 2009/08/28 16:34
[size=4][/size]I have just purchased a Contessa 26 and am very happy with it. Would like to get it out for a sail asp but....... I can't seem to figure out the boom hookup and the rigging for the sail and the traveller. The boom doesn't seem to have a block to prevent it from popping off of the mast. there is a fitting that seems to work - but if I use that part of it would rub the deck and it has way too much rope on it. So that doesn't seem right. As for the traveller - there is no hard traveller. There is a very length sheet with about five blocks on it. But that doesn't seem to make sense either. I have had a couple of very seasoned sailers look at this and we can't figure it out. Can anyone help? I can't ask the original owner. He is very elderly and not very well. If anyone can help I can send detailed pics.Tree tremarkel@yahoo.ca

Hi Guy, Have posted pics. It is an old fashioned rigging and several people are stumped. Any assistance would be great.
