Good call. This is a problem as an “exit” has not been provided for in the rules. If the rules are followed correctly anything not provided for in the rules is not allowed.
I think making Measurement Rule 121 optional or deleted is the answer.
Making it optional is a bit messy if a goal is to simplify measurement.
Anyway – until there is a further approved rule change I do not see it possible to neatly rig an internal outhaul and comply with the rules.
I wonder if, until a further rule change can be enacted, it would be ok to have the hangers loose?
The rule does not say they have to be in use – in this instance – wold I be compliant by retaining the hanger and taping it up?
SI am new to Sabres … is anyone trying an internal outhaul with a ‘Laser/Aero style’ strap loop to connect to the boom. It seems to be very simple and works well on other boats?
Hi MRDawson,
Yes – there are many boats using an internal outhaul with a Laser/Area style strap loop. My boat uses this arrangement, but I don’t use the velcro strap. I simply use a piece of dyneema for the loop around the boom.
