Sean,
Yes, I did use the spinnaker and quite often.

However, I guess that when I took the photo, I didn’t have it set up.

Emmylou has them on the outer edges of the cabin top.
If it comes down to racing your setup looks great.
Were you using the spin yard? Don’t see “reins.”Sean
-----Original Message-----A few tidbits:
The official class sail had a snap shackle at the tack that
clipped
to the hoop at the top of the spinnaker sleeve on the gun mount.Haarstick will not list Freedom 21 sails at their web site as the
model is “out of date”. However, they do have all of the proper
measurements as they built the original sails. In any event, the
sail
dimensions are at the Freedom 21 web site
(http://www.freedom21.info/f21sails.pdf).As for tracks on the cabin top, it isn’t really necessary. You
just need a sheet block. See the details of what I did.
