On most boats it is important to have the head of the mainsail as close to the top of the mast as possible. Furthermore it must also be quick to attach and disconnect the main halyard, even with cold and wet fingers. So a shackle or a bowline are not the best solutions. The best is the method is the one shown in this video. The bobble is nice, but not strictly necessary. A double figure of 8 knot (figure of 16?) will do. The bobble or knot is never removed so you cannot lose the halyard through the mast. I usually shorten the main halyard a few cm/in at the start of each season to move the wear spots.

The talents of no less than Morelli and Melvin took up this bold challenge. As these catamarans are individually built, the possibilities for customization are almost endless, both inside and out. So, we won’t even be surprised to discover huge tillers on number 5 in the series. The perceived quality (composite manufacturing and fittings) of these all-carbon multihulls is spectacular. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Hudson Catamarans Length: 65’11” (20.10 m) Beam: 28’6” (8.70 m) Light displacement: 39,680 lbs (18,000 kg) Draft: 6’5” / 13’2” (1.96 / 4.00 m) Mainsail area: 1,560 sq ft (145 m²) Genoa: 947 sq ft (88 m²) Asymmetric spi: 3,175 sq ft (295 m²) Engines: 2 x 80 HP ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!

Only for the fun of it! My local friend's daughter is such an entertainer, and we decided to make this short together. She is the cutest little girl and she even speaks excellent English. So fun to have such a great connection with the family running the Warung at the dinghy dock
