Hi all,

 

I am building a Lapwing and am having trouble finding a dimension for locating the mainmast partner location.  I have a construction plan for both the Cs17 and Lapwing, and whilst the CS17 plans show the location of both the main and mizzen I can only find the mizzen location on the Lapwing plans.  Any help out ther?  Cheers, Graham

I don't remember how I located the partner when I built mine, it was 10 years ago.  But when I hook my tape over the stem, and measure aft to the center of the partner, I get 20 1/2". The step is then located using the mast tube through the partner and the 1 in 20 ratio forward of plumb to height above step.
