Man O War mainsheet lenght and size

Post by srmargaret »

Hello,
I am new to the forum and I need a little help on the weight of line and how long the mainsheet should be. We use the boat at camp for teaching the campers how to sail. I am currently using some very heavy line used for climbing, as it was free and it is way to long, can someone help me out with info?
Thanks so much.

Sister, have a look at the thread below - both these guys are Man-O-War Sailors. You might click on the PM or email buttons on the posts to see if they can tell you what they are using.

Otherwise I would just use what ever fits in the blocks and works...good luck
