I went the other way with Green bananas and went a single spreader route with higher shroud/forestay locations to give the top mast support.

Did end up having a forestay proddder to stop forestay sag.

It has enabled me to adjust the rig on the water by simply winding in the shrouds as wind increases inducing more bend and tighter forestay.

But I know I’m an out layer with this rig setup.

Hi Paul,

I’m bringing the mast along as I’ll need support to rebuild the base. Been pretty badly bodged in the past.

Hi Andy, if you are not bringing the mast, have you got the inside diameter of the inner tube in the mast and also the overall diameter?

That was one the Lees made for Antidote from  two windsurf board skegs. I think Marmites is about 1100mm span.

Hi [mention]paul_croote [/mention]

I hear your running the largest t foil in the fleet…….. may I enquire to your size and feedback please?

Loco came with some “extra hydrofoils”, and I’m thinking about making a light wind t foil with the spare rudder.

One for the sticky weekend perhaps?
