No words. Just simple, step-by-step how-to content. This Tech Team Express Video shows you how to adjust the engage point on Harken Ratchamatic Blocks. To increase or decrease the load at which the ratchet engages, first, move the sheave so the hole in the sheave’s groove is at the bottom of the block. Insert a 2.5 mm Allen wrench and turn clockwise to engage at higher loads and counterclockwise for lighter loads. You will need to remove the becket before adjusting if it is a becket block.
🏝️ Introducing: Lazy Days = Local Love (with more to come as we wander) Not every day is a sail day, and that’s part of the adventure. This new playlist is for the land lovers and in-between moments: beach walks, forts, goats, tidal pools, and slow island drives. It’s how we spend our few lazy days off the boat, exploring places across the island of St. Martin. 💙 Sharing the island from our point of view.

“Well, a couta boat, it’s got what you call a transom. It’s square at the back, you know? And its stern is shaped like a wine glass. They call it a wine glass stern, but a double-ender is virtually the same shape on the bow as what it is at the stern. A double-ender boat is built for net fishing."
