MickG Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 In one of the related forum topics, I noticed a CS 20 from Australia or New Zealand with a Core Sound 20 decal ( or maybe painted) on the aft quarter near the transom and aprox 6 inches down from the shear. It looked VERY NICE and I am wondering if Graham has ever considered marketing such a decal.????????? Quote
Peter HK Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 I ordered the name online from this site http://www.boatnames.com.au/index.html and they threw in the Core Sound decal for free. It came in a couple of days with detailed instructions. I presume there would be similar sites in the US. Quote
MickG Posted February 6, 2010 Author Posted February 6, 2010 Peter: Your boat is the one that I am making referance to. Nice looking boat and thank you for the reply. If Graham does't come up with a prefeered dessign, I may "copy" yours. Thanks again, Mick Quote
MickG Posted February 6, 2010 Author Posted February 6, 2010 Peter: Another question for you. I n otice that the mizzen sheet rides on a block attached to a rope traveler. Is that block free to travel from side to side or is attached in one position on the "traveler"? Also, it likes like your mizzen sheet is led forward along the sprit and then to block on the mast, then down the mast to some type of cleat. How do you like that set up? Mick Quote

Is that block free to travel from side to side or is attached in one position on the "traveler"? It free to slide along the traveller- in practice it wouldn't move more than 6 inches. Also, it likes like your mizzen sheet is led forward along the sprit and then to block on the mast, then down the mast to some type of cleat. How do you like that set up? I prefer sheets led so that I don't have to reach behind me but that's just a personal preference. There are some minor downsides- a couple of extra blocks in the system means it doesn't run as freely as the mainsheet and you have to feed it out in light airs, it takes half a minute longer to rig and the thwart gets a little busy with cleats at the base of the mizzen mast. All in all I'm happy with it. Cheers Peter HK Quote
