Thanks for responding, Joe!. I don't have anything in my owners manual on this --- actually, I'm rather impressed that the '85 C27 has an owner's manual that reaches to at least 53 pages, since the one that came with my '77 is a skimpy little thing, similar to the one that is posted the group's file section. Maybe you (or some other member with the larger manual and access to a scanner) could post it on the site?
If anyone does have the rigging set up on theirs and can fill in the rest of the details on sizing, capacity, etc., would be much obliged! Thanks again in advance for any help.
