Put tape on the underside to cover the holes before filling with thickened
epoxy. Then once cured drill appropriate sized hole in the epoxy for the

Do you do anything special to keep the epoxy in place until you can put some

Dwight,
I was going ask the same question as Chuck. My 35 Mk2 is old school, no
roller furler racing genoas, but does have a cruising roller furl #2.
All racing genoas are deck sweepers and are lead inboard of the
lifelines which requires on each tack that the foredeck "skirts" the
sails. I
Shawn,
I answered Bob's email and added a drawing of my deck layout - of course
it was too big and got rejected. Below are the two emails that were sent
directly to Bob and a Dropbox url with the files (first time for
dropbox) Let me know if you can't view them. I also revised that the
boat
It is also possible with a balsa core to pick out the core with a bent wire or
other steel curved hook going into the side wall of the hole so you don’t have
to over drill from either side. You have to make sure you get it all so the
epoxy will seal the core. Hard to do with a small <1/4”
Hi Dwight,
Do you ever trim the genoa so that it is entirely inside the lifelines?

IMHO, I think there are three tricks to mounting genoa or jib tracks.
1. Cut away the headliner so the backing plate is against the underside of
the deck. I've seen too many folks simply crush the headliner against the
underdecking.
2. Make sure the backing plate(s) is adequately thick and
Bob,
If you install the inner tracks, I suggest you make up an "outer sheet" (or
Barber hauler or whatever folks want to call it). Touche's is a length of
line with a snap shackle on the end.
I rig it to the toe rail with a snatch block just a bit forward of where
the primary sheet crosses over

The measurements I listed were provided by a sailmaker. He's been in the
business for decades. I talked with him several years ago about using rings
and athwartship tracks, which is why those measurements were included. I never
did include tracks, but now it has become more important.

Our 35-2 has track, but it is too short for either the 95 jib or the genoa
(which is currently on toerail), so I am looking to add a longer track. I
am curious how you arrived at the measurements? Based on the foot length of
the sail? Were they done on paper, or with the actual sail on the boat?
Tracks often lead to leaks. Rings sound like a good idea

Bob,
I use that track for my 155% and 125% headsails. I use a small track by
the shrouds for a 95%.
I'll send you more pics off list.

Bob,
You'll find that your cabinetry may limit where you can locate the tracks.
Here's a pic of Touche's genoa track.

The beam of the Mk I is the same as the beam of my Mk II at 10.5 feet. A

I'd look into using Low Friction Rings and avoid adding tracks. They've
gotten the strength up on the rings and race boats are using these instead of
blocks on tracks. They
Before I switched to a furling 135% genoa, which I use for racing and
cruising, I raced with a 105% genoa. My tracks are right up against the
cabin, and run from just aft of the shrouds to just forward of the
companionway. With the 105, I got a PHRF rating of nine seconds more than
with a 155, and
