Steps Description
Unfold the sail on the trampoline. Insert the
battens into the batten pockets. Fasten each
batten as shown on the photos above. To tension
the battens, pull tension on the webbing stripes
forcing the batten into the pocket and cleat it.
1
Tension each batten so that the wrinkles in the
batten pockets are removed, but not excessi-
vely otherwise the sail may be more difficult to
handle. Release the tension at the end of the day
to avoid stretching the sail while it is not in use.
Attach the main halyard shackle to the sail
headboard. Feed the bolt rope of the sail into the
slit in the sail track. Proceed to pull down on the
main halyard whilst feeding the bolt rope into the
2
slit.
Once the mainsail is fully raised, secure the
halyard in the cleat at the bottom of the mast.
Feed the bottom part of the bolt rope (the part
3 that remains at the bottom once the sail is fully
raised) into the sail track below the slit.
