Hi, I'm Ian and the owner of Freestyle 474 #209 (serial numbers are embedded into the transom of each hull.)

I posted pictures up on cowco.net many years ago.

I have owned my cat for 16 years now and have sailed it every summer since buying from the neighbour in 2001. You might be able to deduce from my spelling of neighbour that I am Canadian living in Ontario, about 2 hours NE of Toronto.

Currently I am re-rigging for the summer and would like to figure out the "right" way to rig. If anyone has an original Freestyle manual ... that would be soooo cool. PDF would be awesome!!

Anyway, like Matt any advice would be very welcome.

I'll start with a question regarding trampoline lashing.

As shown in the photo, there are 2 eyelets on the tramp, 2 hoops on the starboard hull and 1 hoop on the underside of the front crossbar.
Any clue how these are used or how they are laced?
The boat does not have a jib so there is no hardware for that purpose.

Thanks fellow sailors!

Ian
