Page 3: Introduction
With this manual, you will master your rigging knowledge on the FE19R. The Fareast 19R can be assembled alone, but we do recommend having at least one sailing friend for the first time. It is also a lot more fun. -
Page 4: Tools Needed
Mast rigging The rigging method for the first time you will take delivery of your Fareast 19R or the first time you rig it at the beginning of the season is very similar. It should take you 3h for the first time and less than 45 minutes with practice. - Page 5 f) Insert the top of the lower side stays to the spreader’s bracket. To do so, the stem ball terminal and the cup must be inserted from the bottom of the bracket and through the furthest hole of the bracket. Once the cup is through, the terminal and the cup stay in the closest hole of the mast bracket.
- Page 6 Insert the T-terminal of the upper side stays to the top of the mast. The FE19R comes with two T-terminal retaining plugs. Add those above the upper side stays and if possible, tape them in place. They can fall o while raising the mast. The T-terminal can only go in an out the fitting from one angle.

k) Assemble the turnbuckle of the upper side stays to the threaded fork toggle end. The upper side stays are always attached to the most forward hole of the chain plate. The upper side stays can either go inside or outside the lifeline. It is important to have it screwed in an equal amount at the bottom and top of the turnbuckle. -

e) Make sure the threaded fork toggle end for the upper side stays is parallel with the FE19R and it will follow the motion of the mast going up. Failing to do so will bend the threaded fork toggle end. f) Ask your helper to pull the gennaker’s halyard while you lift the mast. - Page 9 o) Attach the boom vang.

Please note that for an optimal angle of the cam cleat, you can switch it upside down or change its angle by removing the 3 screws of each side and moving the cam cleat to the desired angle. It is easier to pull up than down to release the boom vang. -
Page 11: Gennaker Set-Up
Gennaker set-up The gennaker is a fantastic downwind sail to use. It increases the sail area by 50%. This may seem a lot for a novice, but it is an incredible fun and easy sail to use. The FE19R use an asymmetrical gennaker. - Page 12 12) Keep walking forward with the end of the windward sheet and pass it in front of the forestay. Grad the end from the other side of the forestay and walk back on starboard all the way to the stern. Make sure the sheet is always outside of the lifeline and side stays. 13) Feed the end of the windward sheet into the stern gennaker’s block.
