It is drawn to scale 3/16" = 1'. You may be able to enlarge
it to original size by using the 3" line beneath the legend. Bu
maybe you won't need to.
Here are a few notes:
- I defer to your expertise. If you think something
should be changed then let me know. I will likely agree with
your expertise.
- There are three sails. I left out the lazy
jacks because they made it look a bit confusing. I don't see why
you would need to see them in the drawings. Also, on the big
picture of the whole boat, some rigging details are left out on
the FORE and MIZZEN for clarity. All sails have all the rigging
details such as bridles, parallels, lazy jacks, etc.
- Sailcloth weight: I want to go with Dacron sails. I
would like your advice on sail cloth weight. The boat is a
coastal cruiser, not an open water boat, and I prefer the
reduced weight. (although too light might bag out the sails, so
I would like to avoid that.) I suggest 6 oz Dacron. Does
this seem about right to you?
- Sail colour is Tanbark.
- Battens. The battens will be 3/4" x 1 1/2" on either
side of the sail, screwed through the sail, So the fina batten
dimensions are 1.5" x 2". I plan to use red cedar for the
battens.
- Parrells. I gave the measurements for the
parrells at the HEAD and FOOT for each sail. You can snap a
line from top to bottom to get the precise location for the
others. They all should then line up with the mast.
- Bridles. I trust your judgment on the
placement of these. Ideally each pair of grommets
would be spaced about 2" apart, given the dimensions of the
battens.
