The boom gets bungeed down tight in the bottom of the boat to three blocks of sponge so it doesnt bounce about. The sail in its bag has a loop of mainsheet put through one of the bag handles..just in case. The cover goes back on & thats pretty much it. I use 2 ratchet straps with protectors for the gunn'ls, 1 just behind the mast bridge, 1 just about midships. The light board is fitted onto the rudder pintles, which also holds the bottom of the mast up. The shrouds & halyard are laid alongside the mast & secured at intervals with a few rope ties. Go a few miles & then stop & check the straps are still nice n tight. Good luck with your new boat! Cheers Don Tweet |
