Main Sail
Always point your Hobie directly into the wind before you raise the mainsail.
1. Unfold the mainsail onto the trampoline and insert each batten into its respective pocket. The bat-
tens are numbered (from 1 to 7) the smallest (N ° 1) goes at the top of the sail and the longest (N° 7)
at the bottom of the sail. Attach the batten end caps with the batten lines as shown on the photos.
2.
Undo the main halyard rope which is rolled around
the mast. Pass one end through the hole in the
mainsail head plate and stop with a 8 figure knot.
(on the left side).
3.
Go onto the trampoline. Feed the luff of the mainsail into the
opening of the mast track ensuring that the hook is on one side
of the mast and the halyard rope on the other side. Raise the
mainsail by pulling the halyard and feeding the sail
until it reaches the top. When the sail is all the
way up, turn the mast slightly to the left in order
to hook on the mainsail. Insert the bottom end of
the luff into the base of the mast track. Roll up
the halyard rope and place it into the pocket on the
trampoline at the foot of the mast.
