Re: Help Rigging a Nacra 6.0 (na?)

I probably have one of the other boats from this same family (mine
was sail #22). I have a Nacra 6.0 Original that the owner (who lived
in Orange County) converted to a pseudo-NA shortly after the 5.8NA
came out. Apparently, the self-tacking jib didn’t provide enough
sail area downwind.

My mast step/pin arrangement is designed to hold the ball captive
while raising the mast, but I wouldn’t depend on it. I’ve put enough
pressure on it to strip the threads on the ball and pop it off the
rod. After lifting that mast for the first couple of seasons, I got
smarter and put a winch on the trailer’s front mast support and that
helps to lift it and it applies pressure on to the mast ball.
