E-29 Reach Strut/jib photos or diagram
I purchased a 1974 E-29 this winter. I have managed to restep the mast and get the main sail in the air. However, I cannot figure out how the jib and reach strut assembly are suposed to go together. I have looked at some other boats at my marina (most have rolling furlers) one has a reach strut assembly. The reach strut fastens to a swivel on the foredeck. My boat appears not to have any swivel on the fore deck. Now i'm stumped. Any help would be appreciated.
