Your

been

carefully

engineered

we

should

look

at

First

remove

the

sto

w

it

Now,

take

your

locke

r and

mount on

Once mounted,

the

HEADROOM

HATCH

In

sitting

headroom

clearance

to

a

headroom

height

of

J

the

follOWing

steps

MUST

be

followed.

Please

re

membe

r

that

the

hatch

is

quite

large

and

weighs

about

80 pounds

so

it

should

be

handled

with

some

caution.

A.

First

be

sure

that

the

slide

on

the

forward

ar

t

of

the

hatch

1s

1n

the

mast

track

and

free

to

slide

UP

. A

shot

of

~-40"

or

paraffin

rubbed

in

the

track

slot

will

assure

easy

movement

of

the

hatch

slide.

B.

Now

go

below,

loosen

and

REMOVE

the

three

hatch

lock

handles.

Experience

has

shawn

that

theBe

handles

can

fall

off

when

the

Hatch

is

up

and

alBo

can

be

in

SPARS,

RIGGING

AND

HA!IDlARE

Our

masts

are

built

to

~ithstand

any

normal

usage

but

im-

proper

tuning

or

handling

can

cause

problems.

Therefore,

we

do

not

warrant

the

mast

of

your

CAL-27

under

our

cur

rent

warrant

program.

Rigging

as

well

as

tuning

becomes

all

important

'Wben

setting

up

the

mast

because

of

the

light

weight

section

we

use.

A

knowledgeable

pe

rson

should

oversee

the

rigging

and

tuning

so

as

to

eliminate

the

possibility

of

an

eccentric

load

which

might

ocCur

with

an

improperly

loaded

shroud.

Special

attentions

should

be

given

to

the

initial

stretch

of

the

uppers

and

a

further

grad-

ual

stretch

of

the

~ire

over

the

first

few

hard

outings.

A.

MAST

TUNE

The

mast

should

be

set

straight

athwart-ships

in

the

boat

and

have

a

slight

rake

aft.

A

straight

mast

can

best

-3-

CA

L-

27

be

obta

ined

by

turnbuckle

adjustment

while

sail

in

g

to

windward

in

a 5

to

10

mpb

breeze.

The

head

of

the

mast

should

not

"hook"

to

windward.

If

not

straight,

it

would

be

more

desirable

to

have

the

head

"fall-off"

sli

ghtly

to

leewa

rd.

This

should

give

the

mast

a

smooth,

even

curve

from head

to

deck.

Sighting

along

the

back

of

the

mast on each

tack,

from deck

level,

will

give

a compar-

ison

lind

indicate

the

necessary

adjustments.

For normal

cr

u1

sing

conditions,

we

recolI1Dlend

rig.

Thus a

dock-side

point

would h

ave

beadstay,

backstay

and

u~pers

just

Now

the

,

reach

and

any

When

racing,

the
