Rob, Cabin wenches can be an expensive option, depending on your marital status and taste in wenches. Rummy In a message dated 9/25/2012 5:01:35 P.M.

I called Stan, he said he never included them as an add on - he felt the buyer should supply their own. My wife says if I get one it is going to be really expensive ... she didn't say much more rob -- Robert O.

Slow motor down to near idle speed and point bow into wind. 2. Undo outhaul and inhaul lines. Pull on outhaul while keeping pressure on inhaul line. Once out use cleats on bottom of boom to tie off. 3. Release topping lift. 4. Fall off wind, loosen main sheet some for better control and shut motor down/raise. 5 If wanted you can now pull out the genoa. 6. Have cabin wench make cool refreshing rum drink, sit back and enjoy the ride. RummySee the original archive post
