• Pull the spinnaker from one side to the other, as if you were gybing, to

4.11 Completion.
Now you are almost ready to go 500 sailing. All that is left to do is:
• Fit the rudder to the back of the boat.
• Tidy the halyards away.
1) To fit the rudder, simply line up the pins with the fitting on the back of
the boat and push down until the retaining clip ‘clicks’ into place. The
rudder may be difficult to get on at first but all it will need is a simple
waggle from side to side whilst pushing down.
2) To remove the rudder, simply push the retaining clip in and pull up on
the stock.
