Sails And Rigging - Jeanneau 39i Operation Manual

ELECTRONICS
There is a Standard VHF radio located in the Nav Station with a remote for the
binnacle. Make sure the breaker is on at the DC Panel (electronics). Always monitor
Channel 16 while underway.
There is an Autohelm Tridata depth sounder located on the binnacle. To activate,
ensure that the DC breaker is on. The sounder is reliable in waters less then 200 feet
and at slower speeds. If your reading is blinking, it might be a false reading due to
excessive depths or strong currents! Watch your depth carefully in cruising unknown
waters that might have rocks or obstacles.
The Raymarine Chart Plotter, Autopilot and Wind Instruments are located in the
cockpit.
There is a stereo at the Nav Station with a CD changer.
ANCHORING
Your primary working anchor, a 35 lb plow, is attached to 200 of chain. It is marked
every 25 feet.
Turn on the anchor windlass on the AC panel and proceed to raise and lower the
anchor as needed. Be sure to always have your engine running. See page 11 in the
White Binder for further anchoring instructions.
Turn off the breaker when finished.

SAILS AND RIGGING

There is a 120% genoa on a roller furler. The furling line runs on
to the cockpit. To unfurl the headsail:
1. Uncleat the furling lines
2. Wrap the sheet around the appropriate winch
3. Pull the sheet aft while applying some tension to the furling line
4. Cleat when it is fully out or when to point of appropriate reef
To furl the jib, apply slight tension on the jib sheet while pulling in the furling line
until there are 2-3 wraps of the sheet around sail. Jib sheets are led back to the
cockpit to two winches. Adjust fairleads forward in heavy air, aft in light wind.
The Mainsail is fully battened with lazy jacks and stored on the boom in the sail bag.
Jib sheets, reefing lines, halyards and traveler are all lead back to the cockpit. There
is a solid boom vang. Please use the topping lift located at the mast to raise the
boom to its usual position after sailing.
BARBEQUE
The Barbeque and mounting bracket are stored in the cockpit locker or on the aft
rail. Attach the propane bottle and regulator when ready to use, usually found with
the starboard side
