Hi All, This is my second season with my new to me 1980 30-1. I would like to rig it for a spinnaker this year. Not interested in racing with one, but I like the idea of using it for light winds downwind sailing. So I have to install a block for the pole lift and I’m wondering where to install it. In the C&C manual it shows the pole lift at 22’-0” above the ‘black line’ at base of mast. But I don’t have a black line on my mast, not at the base (which I assume is around the height of boom?) nor at the top of my mast. Does anyone know where I would locate these black lines? or the height of the topping lift from some other reference point? My second question is where to mount the pole downhaul (foreguy) - a? Thanks for this.
By the way, love the list, such a great source of information. And here’s to all the other C&C owners out there who’s arms are a sore as mine this time of year as we get these boats ready for launch.
