Good to know.

True about reefing I would think it would hold better.

I carry both Trolling motor and Honda 2.3

Thanks guys for all the help.

I might leave transom pulley on the far end of the sprit pole to keep it out of the tiller way. This hole is if you want to sail the boat just with the main and it moved back from the bow like a single mast design would be. Not sure if anyone has sailed a Core Sound 17 with a mast in that location as a single mast boat. I find that the sprit pole points fit tight into the sail loops and I might not need the buggee cord loops to hold them. Will have to see when I test sail. Im happy with how smooth the sail slides in the track on the mast. I was going to take the boat out for a test run a tweak the sails today but the wind is coming out a bit more then I wanted so I will wait for another day.

The main mast is up now and the design stepping the mast is easy with this boat the way it was setup

Another picture of mizzen

I moved the pulley the pulley closer to the point and what do you think of that???

I have the Mizzen sail up and how do the pulleys and lines look? I see why they moved the pulley farther forward on the sprit pole, it is lined up better overhead of the block to the transom but the tiller not clear of it. I placed it back at the end now and stays clear of the tiller.

True a light for anchor would be an idea or flag streamer etc.

I might install a padeye on the main to hold the clew on the point. I going to raise the sails tomorrow in the morning wind will be nothing and will take a look at how they fit on the points of the sprit poles. I think I will just use the hole on the mizzen for the bungee cord loop to the point since its already there. The place a eyepad on the main near the point to hold it in place since my points are not that long.

I don't think I will ever use one of those.

There are two Pad eyes on the front of the mizzen mast maybe so you could hook the pulley on the spit pole to two different locations higher and lower for some reason. The main mast only has one.

Do you use a long D or shorter D. I could use a short looks like if I go that way on the halyards For now I will just tie a knot I guess. Im going to raise the mast today and maybe install the sprit poles and add the sails if the wind is calm to see where I want to install the eye pads on the end of the sprit pole. I want to see where the clew comes to on the pole.
