1. What is the grommet in the center of the tramp for?

For your retrieval line, as explained in a earlier reply.


2. What is the line around the mast above the boom that attaches via blocks to the top of the boom? (I'm not talking about the mast rotation control.)


That is your positive mast rotation or rotation induce. For use in light winds or when sailing on a broad reach without much sheet tension. In the beginning you can do without this device. It is not good to leave it engage and than tack as it keeps the mast rotated to the old side.


3. I need photos of the AHPC mid-pole snuffer/spin set up.

Okay okay, I will send them to you by the end of the day. They are not really clear but anything helps.


4. I need a better understanding of how to fasten the jib halyard.

Sorry I have a different system, this question is for the other guys out her.
