J/30 Class Association Forums J/30 Forum The Boat, Sails and Equipment Backstay adjuster mod.

so ok ... we are just about finished wasting time down here waiting for the snow bird crew to arrive. Like many of yous we have the Lifesling somewhere in the way or hanging on the outside stern rail. We did kick up the backstay adjustment block {noted above} and then found that the Lifesling 2 fit pretty well behind it ... EXCEPT that the flap killed the stern light ... function over form won by cutting a hole for the stern light. also makes an nice arm rest.
