mounted at the bottom of the sail track on the mast.

Pass the other end through one of the sheaves on
the block and then back down around the cleat.
⇒
Thread the line through the remaining sheave and
then pull down on the line to remove the wrinkles

Cunningham/Righting Line
Righting Line / Bout de redressement
2
Tie a knot about 35 cm from the end of the line
and pass the short end down through the grom-
met at the contre front of the trampoline.
Then pass the line through the eyestrap mounted
underneath the mast step and tie a figure 8 knot
in the end.
Now, stow the rest of the righting line in the
trampoline pocket.
A knot in the righting line just above the grom-
met will prevent the righting line from slipping
down and dragging in the water.
