Reacher Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 I've noticed in videos of a Core Sound 20 and EC22 that the main sheet appears to be doubled. It looks like there is a double block on the clew with two sets of lines. I'm thinking that there is a third sheet block on the thwart with the extra turn of line running from the clew to the block then back up to the clew. Is this correct? Is it for more sheeting purchase or sheeting angle, too? Thanks for any info and explanation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Anderson Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 On the EC22 there is a double block on the main clew for extra purchase I am not sure if the CS 20 is the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Stewart Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 It's for sheeting purchase. We went for 4:1 on the CS20 Mark 3 due to the larger main. I have had no problem with 2:1 on the CS-20 but a 4:1 would be nice for heavy wind work. -Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
