Hello,

I am a new owner of a Seaspray and very much a novice and I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction in regards to rigging the mainsheet. Below image is what I have done but I am not sure if it is correct.

the owners manual I found on the website shows 2 locations on the boom to connect blocks however mine only has a spot for 1.

thank you for your help!

@ryan

That looks like it'll work fine. That looks like a stock setup. You've only got a 3:1 purchase there. I've seen more of them in races with two so-called "fiddle blocks" and a 4:1 purchase.

But yeah, you're fine!

BEWARE: These are OLD boats. Something will probably break on your shakedown cruise, so don't get too radical or stray too far...
