AS I recall reading, there is a "mouse" attachment that should be when flying a ballooner. The way I understand it is that the mouse releases the halyard when you need to furl the sail. Never havin seen one, much less flown one, I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around the concept.
On my Sharki, I finally got the outrigger poles lines squared away (or nearly so), got a new jib made; now I'm turning my attention to a ballooner. I think I have one, but haven't pulled it out yet as I didn't have enough stuff to fly it. From reading all the blogs the mouse
seems quite important.
So a couple of things would be nice:
1) a photo of the mouse contraption
2) details on hoe to rig it and use a ballooner.
I downloaded a SM manual for reference, but do not recall seeing the sail setup.
