3.13 - Rigging the Gennaker
• With the gennaker on the port-hand side of the boat, pass the end of the gennaker
downhaul through the small eyelet in the centre of the gennaker, from the inside to
outside.
• Run the gennaker downhaul line up the outside of the gennaker.
• Take the gennaker downhaul bobble from the customer pack and
thread the downhaul through it. Place the gennaker downhaul
bobble approximately 200 mm from the end of the downhaul, and
tie it in place with a single overhand knot.
•Tie the end of the gennaker downhaul onto the upper
patch (cross of webbing) using knot #2
gennaker does not come all the way down, shorten the
distance between the bobble and the patch.
• Find the middle of the gennaker sheet and double it over to
form a loop.
• Pass this loop through the eyelet at the clew of the gennaker.
• Pass the tails of the gennaker sheet through the loop and pull it tight.
