So I just bought an O'Day Javelin.
The one I sailed in the past had the standard 3 stays and then the jib clipped on to the forestay.
On this one it has the clips on the jib but also a cable up the jib and a harken roller furling system, so the forestay is essentially just the cable in the jib which travels up to to furling swivel at the top. This swivel then clips to a wire which runs through a pulley and then turns into rope which you cleat off half way down the mast. So it's missing the traditional forestay.
Will this be OK?
The shroud's aren't particularly taught, is there any guidance on how tight they should be?
There's also there's no boom vang? There's no fixture's on the boom where one could do so I presume it never had one.
