[Rhodes22-list] Raven's outhaul sketch.pdf

[Bill Effros]

Peter,

Thanks, 135 emails behind and trying to catch up.

Let me see if I've got this right:  the bitter end of the outhaul line 
is attached to the forward end of the car, goes around a block at the 
clew, comes back under the block on the car, and then down through the boom?

It looks good on paper, you say it works, it's not the way mine was 
rigged, but if I've got it right, I'll try it next chance I get.
