Hi all,

Just purchased my first cat to learn on, got a (very) pre loved H14 nice and cheap with a trailer and it was sailing last year. Seems quite solid with no soft spots but needs a little attention. Pylons a little loose so will epoxy them up etc, takes on a little water, and one of the rudder cams is broken... Brand new tramp though.

At the moment there is no righting line, and as i want to keep costs down, what 'ghetto' system will work. Will a long enough line from the mast base over the hull work? I dont want to get to elaborate and the commercially available righting systmes would just about double to cost of the cat!

Any other suggestions?

Kind Regards,
James
