Just rigging my Parker 275 for the first time. This is she:

From this photo you can see that the mainsheet starts on the coach roof where I think there should be a double block on the traveller. So I think the mainsheet end is attached on the traveller, then up through block 1 on the boom, through double block on traveller, block 2 on boom, double block on traveller, block 3 on boom, back along the boom, through big block on end of boom and down in to the cockpit.

Any ideas if this is right and what happens at the cockpit end?? From this photo it appears to go down and back up and there must be a jammer involved somewhere! There is 1 attachment point on the sole of the cockpit!

Photos, diagrams, ideas welcome!

Have posted on the Parker forum where I am sure I will get help but this place is often faster!!

Cheers

Rob
