•

Position the hulls parallel on the ground approximately 2 meters apart. Prepare the front crossbar. Unscrew

the nuts off of the two 2 external head bolts. Unscrew the nuts also off of the two internal headless bolts.

NB : Periodically check the tightness of all 8 bolts.

HULL ASSEMBLY

See drawing hereunder to position the screws

Lift the right hull into an upright position. One person

straddles the hull to hold in position. The other one ap-

plies the silicone sealant (for waterproofing) around the bolt

holes and on rivets.

Taking the front crossbar, position it on the crossbar

moulding in the deck making sure that the eye strap

on the bar is facing to the rear of the boat and the remai-

ning headless bolt on the cross bar fits in the hole on the

deck. Insert the long external screw.

Pass your hand through the ins-

pection port to position the nuts

and washers onto the long bolt and

the headless bolt.

Repeat the same operation for

the other hull. Repeat step 1

and 2 for the rear crossbar.

All go round the boat and tighten

all eight bolts and 16 nuts.

HULL ASSEMBLY

Identify the right side from

the left side of the bar (look

for the stickers) and position

it the right way between the

two hulls and attach the bar

with the supplied shackles as

shown on the photo.

VERY IMPORTANT / TRES IMPORTANT

Never use the forward spreader bar to carry the boat. Use the 4 handles

(2 at the front, 2 at the rear of the boat) to carry the boat.

Forward spreader bar assembly

It is highly recommended to install the forward sprea-

der bar if the loaded weight is more than 75 kg and

wind force more than 3. Failure to respect this recom-

mendation may cause structural damages on the hulls

that will not be covered by warranty.

•

Tensioning the sides :

starting at the right

rear corner, take the

line that emerges from the

trampoline. Lead it through

the eye strap on the rear

beam and then through the

grommet/eyelet. Tie it off

with a bowline knot or simi-

lar.

Unfold the trampoline. Note that the side tension

lines are prethreaded. Insert the front sealed bolt

rope edge into the trampoline track of the front cross-

bar. Continue feeding the trampoline into the trampoline

track and position it in the centre. Line up the grommet in

the centre of the front edge of the trampoline with the dol-

phin striker post. This will position the trampoline in the

TRAMPOLINE

Trampoline fittings

each side.

Commence lacing the rear of the trampoline. The lacing line ties

off on the lacing post at the left rear of the rear beam. Pass the

line around the rod and back around the first lacing post. Lead

the line around the second lacing post and pass it around the rod

on the first trampoline cut out. Now, come back around the se-

cond lacing post and continue towards the third. Continue all the

way across the beam in the same fashion and tie off loosely. Do

no t

centre.

Pull the trampoline to the back of

the boat and insert the fibreflass

rod into the rear flap of the trampoline.

Leave an equal amount protruding from

Now lead the end of the line through the

eyestrap on the rear of the front beam and

back through the loop. Lead the end back

through the eyestrap and apply as much tension as

possible. Maintaining the tension, lead the line

through the grommet and back to the eyestrap.

Next, lead the line through the grommet in the front

edge of the trampoline and tie off securely. Repeat

Move to the front

right corner of the

trampoline. Pull on

the line as firmly as pos-

sible and tie a bowline knot

or loop in the line as close

to the trampoline edge as

possible. This will enable a

4:1 purchase to be used for

tensioning. Tie off once

tensioned to secure.

Retighten rear lacing

from left to right. Tie the rear

lacing off securely at the eye-

let posts on the right hand

end of the rear beam. NB : It

is important that the trampo-

line lacing is kept very tight.

Check the trampoline tension

on a regular basis. Remem-

Locate the tiller crossbar and identify the left and right hand ends. NB: the tiller crossbar (1) locates on top of

the tiller/rudder arms (2).

Identify the right rudder from the left rudder (look

for the stickers on the rudder arms). As shown,

line up the rudder pintles (metal pegs on the

hulls) with the rudder castings . Push the rudder cas-

tings down onto the pintles.

RUDDER ASSEMBLY AND TILLER EXTENSION

Rudder assembly

Insert the retainer clip attached to the lower pintle to lock

the rudders in place. The clip will prevent the rudders from

falling off the boat in the event of capsize.

Locate the tiller extension and secure it to the tiller crossbar

using the clevis pin and ring clip provided.

•

Remove the main and jib halyard lines from the ropes bags.

Unroll the main halyard wire that is secured at the head of

the mast. Using a bowline knot, secure the main halyard line to

the thimble at the end of the halyard wire. Now, secure both ends

at the base of the mast.

Mast & rigging

MAST PREPARATION

Remove all the wires from the wires bag and unroll them.

They are all already mounted on the 8 mm shackle. Ensure

that all twists are removed.

Tighten the shackle securely on the mast tang.

1. Trapezes

2. Shrouds

3. Pigtail, forestay and jib halyard

Using a bowline knot secure the jib halyard line to the small

block on the end of the jib halyard wire. Now secure both

ends at the base of the mast.

Locate the Jib furler and shackle it to the bridles

using the 6 mm shackle provided. Ensure that the

exit hole in the furler is pointing at the furler cleat on

the front crossbar. Check that the screw on the under-

side of the furler is tight. This prevents the outer cover

from rotating.

Wind the furler up in a clockwise direc-

tion. Leave enough furler line to reach

the furler cleat.

Jib furler

•

With the base of the mast facing towards the front of the boat, lay the

mast on top of the boat. (place some pading under the mast to prevent

scratching).

Next, fasten the shrouds into the stay ad-

justers. To begin with, fasten the shroud

about half way up the adjuster. This posi-

tion can be adjusted later. The position in-

fluences mast rake. Now fasten the stay

adjusters on each side of the boat. You

can pull the cover partially over the stay

adjusters at this time. The assembly of the

trapeze wires can wait until after you have

raised the mast.

RAISING THE MAST

Now, ensure that the forestay wire is not twisted around any other wires and

you are ready for raising the mast. For safety, two people should raise the

mast. One person now takes the head of the mast while the other person po-

sitions the base on the mast step ball, which is in the center of the front cross

beam. Remove the nut and bolt from the mast base for the mast to sit on the

ball. Once fitted replace the bolt and nut. This will ensure the mast does not

‘pop off’ of the mast step ball.

Once the mast is standing and the wires all attached remove the nut and

bolt from the mast base. This is only necessary for raising and lowering

the mast.

CAUTION ALUMINIUM MAST -

WATCH FOR OVERHEAD POWER LINES.

Contact with power lines can cause serious injury or death.

With the person on the trampoline

supporting the mast, the other per-

son takes the forestay and connects

it to the stay adjuster fixed to the jib

furler. Pin the forestay towards the

top of the adjuster. Now, provided

all the clevis pins have the split rings

fitted, the mast is supported by the

shrouds and forestay.

•

With the mast now secure, the

trapeze wires can be fitted with

the handles, rope locks and

ajuster lines as shown in the

photograph. Use a bowline knot

to secure the line to the trapeze

shock cord.

Now the rig can be tensioned. One person can pull

down on a trapeze handle whilst the other person re

positions the clevis pin in the stay adjuster. Ensure

that the two shrouds are pinned at the same height

in both adjusters. If too much tension is applied it

may become difficult for the mast to rotate freely.

Check this before proceeding with raising the sail.

RAISING THE MAST

Fitting of trapezes

The height of trapezing can be

adjusted by changing the posi-

tion of the rope lock.
