But we're not completely sure about the last part. Thats the separate line (halyard) which is connected to the other end of the double pulley (hanging loose halfway the spipole). We suppose one end goed to the tack corner of the sail? thrue the pulley on the end of the spipole? How to connect? Can anybody pleae give a short description?
Thanks a lot!
I've only rigged one boat w/ a mid-pole system, but I took that tack line like you said: from the tack of the sail, through the block at the fore end of the pole (over-around-under) back to & through the back-to-back block, and then back up the pole, attaching the end back onto the eyelet that the block is attached to. I just pulled the line through the eyelet and put a stopper knot on it b/c the sizes allowed.
Ok, thanks everybody! yesterday evening we went to the beach, and finally figured this out. The line goes back and you tie it up to the eyelet of the pulley. We've tested everything (made a few mistakes rigging the retriever, and halyard) and everything worked! We found about 5 smaller holes in the spinnaker which we'll have to repair, and unfortunately their was no wind at all at the time we're ready for our first test run. So sunday a new opportunity to sail it.
We found out that the most difficult part is to connect it to halyards, retrieverline and sheets without anything getting twisted. We'll need some practice here :-)
