Rigging

For our OZ PDRacers we ended up using three blocks (pulleys) - TOTAL. Under our rules they are not allowed to be ball bearing blocks so are cheaper, lighter and stronger plain sheaves.

Our tiller extension universal joint is a bit of rope going through holes in the extension and the tiller. (Don't worry about the jargon - the plans just show you where to drill the holes and where to tie the knots). Saves another $15.

A lot of the ropes are simply fitted through holes in the hull and spars - eliminating many specialist fittings and the screws and bolts usually needed.
