I am interested in positioning the sail controls on the side deck as per option 2 in the construction manual. I looked at the close up of John Dick in the Photo Gallery and the layout of controls and positioning of pulley blocks looks clean and efficient.

Has anyone else got John Dick’s system? If so can you advise whether it is better than the standard controls mounted on the deck and on the mast as per the photograph. What are the pros and cons from the experienced sailors among the class?

Thanks for that tip regarding the dolly supporting the boat at the right points. I was wondering if one built the supports for the dolly to match those for the wooden cradle would you be supporting the boat at the right places.

I have made some inquiries with Boeing trailers in Sydney to make me a trailer /dolly combination later this year. I will incorporate your ideas into the design of the beach dolly to ensure that the boat is properly supported.
