I am finding myself single handing my C16 more often. Creaky knees, old age and expanding waistline makes nimbly moving to the front to raise/lower jib and Main sail while in the middle of the lake stressful so I am considering running lines aft. Can someone show pictures of their setup on a C16? Can i do it without a jib furler? Lazy Jacks? Best practices, etc. Pictures would be awesome.
Just trying to get an idea of cost and how easy/hard this is as a DIY project.
I have some pix of the lazy jacks , halyards and jib downhaul. these mods will keep you in control from the cockpit.
The pix are too large for our posting system.
If you send me a PM, I will forward the pictures.
Thanks Carry-on. I pm'd you.
