Sacramento's Camillia Cup Regatta

04 Apr '16

Registration is now open for the Camillia Cup Regatta, https://www.regattanetwork.com/clubmgmt/applet_registration_form.php?regatt… which is here at Lake Folsom, just E of Sacramento. The race is April 16 and 17. There are a number of M-15’s and 17’s in this area, and an M-15 is usually entered in the race. Be great to get a good turnout. The centerboard cruising boats are run under Portsmouth, I believe. I’ll be there in the prototype Sage 15 catboat.

Shroud tension
by David Rifkind 02 Apr '16

02 Apr '16

Any guidance on tensioning shrouds? Mine were set at “that feels about right”. It took me a while to realize, when raising the mast, the shrouds are at maximum tension a few degrees from “up”, when the mast base hasn’t quite dropped down flat, and because of the funny angle, the pull was actually bending the bottom T bolts on the uppers. My shrouds I think are too short, and adjusted all the way out I can just barely get the mast up without overtensioning them. -- David Rifkind M17 #402 “Tycho Blue"
