Re: [Cal_Boats] Mainsheet for 69 Cal 30

Ginger, I push the boom out to the spreaders then measure from traveler block to boom block. Take that times 4 or 6 X that length then add 3 feet. Since you don' t have a mainsheet to measure just find anything that will go thru the blocks one time and tie it off with the boom out. Another thing is to buy one size or so smaller than what you have. Lines swell over time and if you buy what your replacing the line will not run thru the blocks.

I am replacing the lines and not sure how to measure for it. I have a traveler and a little concerned about getting the measurement right. Any thoughts would be appreciated for the Newbie.
