Launching:
Check that the drain plug is in place and tight.
The
automatic bailer should be closed.
With the boat in a few feet of water, slide the daggerboard into the
daggerboard trunk. (You will have to turn the boat sideways to the
wind to keep the boom clear.) Drop it down as much as depth permits.
Attach the retainer line to the mainsheet deck strap. (This prevents
it from falling out in the event of a capsize.)
Pass
one end of the shockcord through the metal strap on the bow, and
hook the two brummel hooks to each other. Push the rudder down if
the water is deep enough. Finally, clip the mainsheet onto the
traveler block.
