Notes:
  1. Rake measurement: Position such that the mast with 25 lbs. or rig tension, then shackle to main halyard, hoist halyard run tape over transom and measure to bottom corner. Dimension is 25' and __".
  2. Rig tension: Measured with mast ram on as much as possible with out inverting mast down low, i.e. straight mast.
  3. Jib sheet: Spacing between each number is 1.5". Numbers go higher as you sheet in.
  4. Jib leads (in/out): Fairlead to fairlead: Max in = 39". Max out = 49.5"
  5. Ram: 1/4" between each mark on mast. "0" = max up (near gooseneck) and "11" = max down. With rake @ 25'-8" and 25 lbs tension, mast is straight down low with ram @ #7.
