Tks for the response, I'm using other tuning tables as a guide. correct "KC1822"
: Greg
: I suspect the reason that no one has
: respondedto your request is that no
: one has heard of this brand of mast.
: I also suspect that there is a
: letter missing from your sail and
: that the original was probably KC
: 1822 indicating that the boat is
: Canadian in origin.
:
: Regardless of the kind of mast the
: process for inducing prebend should
: be the same. There are a number of
: articles on the Fireball homepage in
: the Tech Articles section that will
: give you the basics

: I have a Fireball with a Hawker De
: Haliland mast s/n 2106-175. Having
: issues with getting any mast prebend
: and was looking for information on
: the correct spreader settings for
: this mast. the spreaders measure
: 390mm and 210mm back. The number on
: the sails is C1822, the original
: hull I replaced by building a new
: hull but it's within mm of spec.
: Anyone responding with some info
: would be much appreciated. Also want
: to replace my sails (Bruce Bates).
: Mine I suspect are stretched beyond
: being helped. Anyone want to part
: with a good experienced set of
: sails?
