Running Rigging - Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 349 Owner's Manual

RUNNING RIGGING

- Inspect the halyards for wear and condition.
- Regularly check the condition of the jam cleat jaws.
- Regularly clean the backstay blocks with fresh water.
- Avoid aggressive gybing in order to reduce premature wear on the sheets, attachment points
and the gooseneck.
- If halyard tension (mainsail/genoa) is too great, this can lead to problems when hoisting/
furling.
- When not sailing, slacken the genoa halyard and keep it away from the
forestay (risk of halyard becoming furled around the forestay, which can lead
to the stay breaking and dismasting of the boat).
