Hopefully a Tiger guy will pipe up. For my part, I haven't put together a Tiger since 2005, but on those boats, we always took the toggles off. I did the championship, Tradewinds and the Worlds all on new out-of-the-box boats and didn't use the toggles on any of them. I'd call the factory and ask Greg or Jacques, though - mayber there's some critical purpose to them... <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
