Right on, thanks for all the information. I have a hard time knowing exactly how stuff should go since I am one of two sailboats on my lake and don't have a whole lot of people to talk with.
My chainplates are reinforced underneath the cabin using long pieces of stainless steal. I will provide some pics later.
I am definitely going to look into what was suggested for the forestay of
furling setup...much appreciated.
I think my shrouds are a little long and that is why I have run out of room.
Thanks for all the help,
Adam
