Tie a couple of 1litre milk bottles to the top of your sail. Mast floats just make it that much harder to right, after capsize.

Your mast fitting is serviceable (Looking at the photos) I would use what you have, and check it regularly.

Unless you are racing, stick with what you have. A new rudder setup complete, is worth over $1000.

Still need the single bungee under the tramp to the trap handles/dogbones.

The jib sheets go through the rings, the other end is tied to the dogbone of the trap wire, when you are trapezing the jib sheet will be within reach.

Looks good.

Not quite right , but close. You are missing a double block with becket (replaces the double at the bottom of your system) and a single with cleat, above which the double and becket are attached. All are then attached to the traveller car. The traveller system was originally separate, it anchors under the centre of the rear beam, up through the rollers, then through the cleat. the first photo above (white mainsheet) is how the original system should look. As you can see, it takes up a lot of space and is generally replaced by low profile triple blocks top and bottom.

Boat sold, plenty of cheap parts left.

The middle image is how yours should be (Original), triple block on the boom , single rachet and cleat block attached to traveller, with tandem double and becket attached above the single. The cleat attached to traveller is original and will work.

should have, give me a call on 43591729, and I will check, (trap harness will be old style $30), wires will be new (price when I find them)

The spring tension in the rudder arms holds them down. lift the rudder arms to take the pressure cf the cam roller( sitting on the cam shape top of the rudder) and the rudders drop automatically.

Complete set, rudders to tiller, $200 plus post.
