Prodder
a. To release the tension from a batten,
slide the batten prodder (supplied)
carefully between the two halves of the
velcro locking mechanism and pull the
retrieval line slowly.
Location Point
b. To re-tension the batten locate the tip of
the prodder in to the location point at the
end of the velcro strip then insert between
the batten and the batten pocket inner side.
Push the prodder until the desired batten
tension is attained then withdraw the
prodder gently while pressing both sides of
the batten pocket together to re-engage the
velcro locking mechanism.

4. Place the mainsail in the cockpit of the hull with the luff closest the bow
(front) and the leach closest the stern (back).

a. Ensure there is no twists in
the halyard and it is clear of
the spreaders.

halyard; pass the loop

of the mainsail. (Pass loop
from starboard/right to
port/left side)
c. Pass the bobble through this
loop and pull tight to secure.
