  1. I'm mounting cheek blocks and eyestraps on the main and mizzen sprits as I adapt my CS 17 to a new sail plan that incorporates a sail track. My question is should all of the cheek blocks and eyestraps be through bolted on the sprits, or is this overkill? Thank you.
  2. Hi, I'm almost done adapting my CS 17 to the updated sail plan using the new sail track. Under the new plan, the mizzen sprit should be 108 inches; the main should be 118 inches. In order to adapt my old spars to the new plan, I built a new main sprit and then planned to cut down the old main sprit (is that the word, or should I just say spar?) to the correct size of 108 for the mizzen spar. The old main spar was 116 inches. My question is: Should I cut it down to 108 inches (from the present 116 inches) or just leave it be? I keep reading that it doesn't hurt to have the spars a little longer. Thank you.
