Re: Amel 55 Backstays
Porter McRoberts
We’ve been rigging ours to the cleaner and then to the small winch. Rare that we have a circumstance where we need that winch, especially that the jib sheet has a jam cleat.

My frustration is with the harmonics! We become a huge sailing violin, with a vibration in the running backstay. Like my dad employed me with the TV antenna to watch 60 minutes when I was a kid, I ask a child to hold the backstay to diminish vibration, or alternatively when the child tires, put a bungee cord on it pulling towards a mizzen stay. Any other solutions? The kids are growing old enough to win their protests. The 2-1 or 5-1 cam blocks to the mizzen chain plate may help.
