Thanks for the info. Sounds like a very good idea to me to increase options of point of sail and to save wear on the genoa. Glad to hear it can be easily rigged on this model boat. Judy

The stay is attached to the central vertical split grp panel with two stainless stell plates. The solent is 25sqmeters (250 square feet?) works fine and avoid destrying the genoa too fast. Sailed upwind this summer in a 25-30knots wind, at 50° real wind, much better than on a half furled genoa. -- In amelyachtowners@yahoogroups.com, "Judy Rouse" <judyrouse@h...> wrote: Did you also notice that it is now cutter rigged? Now I'm wonderinghow much trouble it would be to rig a solent stay on the SM2. Anyoneknow if Amel offers a chainplate kit for such, or has anyone added one ontheir own?
