Lowers adjustable
« on: June 30, 2019, 07:25:27 PM »

Hi, this is my first year in a Phantom and just loving it!
I was thinking of putting on the adjustable lower system and was wondering if anyone had drawings and/or photos?  A parts list would be great! I live in Cornwall so I don't have the chance to see other boats.
Regards
Steve

Several ways to do it, other better qualified than  I will doubtless send details, I'm away from home just now.  Where in Cornwall, a few of us in Plymouth.

Are they linked with the forestay adjustment?

Not that I've seen Steve, but I was wondering about whether it would possible. I'm about to start a thread asking the question in the technical questions section.

You can see the usual arrangement for the blocks on the foredeck in the 'Getting the ropes sorted' bit of the Tips and Tricks tab.

Not normally, but there have been boats set up with the lowers linked to the forestay. Very complicated but possible, but don't ask me how. It was on a wooden decked boat about 10 years ago
