I just bought a used Nacra 5.0 and love it. So far, I've sailed with only the main sail. I'm ready to try it with the jib, but am trying to figure out how to get out to a place where I can attach the nylon guides on the sail onto the fore stay. Although I've got fairly long arms, I can't reach the fore stay when either standing on the front edge of the trampoline or sitting/kneeling on the front section of either hull.
I keep the boat on a buoy on a city lake, so I don't have the option of rigging the jib on land with the aid of a ladder.
Is there some sort of tool to do this with?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
