If it can be made to work on the open 60 mono's with canting keels then it can certainly be made to work on a 18 ft skiff.


Beside on cat the biggest portion of the rig come from the mainsheet and leech tension. Think 2/3rd or more. The skiffs use ram-vangs and rather weak 3:1 mainsheets therefor don't have this component.

That makes a really big difference.
