I've had it on the Capricorn for a year. Love it. They went through three prototypes before putting it to market. Runs clean. Looks like a "wide load" at first glance, but I got used to it. 10:1 might sound like overkill on an F18, but it was Tom Paoli who convinced me to give it a try - at Nationals, he took the 10:1 off his Nacra 20 and put it on the Cap - felt much better. The saddle-block was designed to allow for a cleaner reave of the sheet. In light or heavy air, this setup works great.

That is where I lifted the picture from. The people behind this forum may be interested in providing it to you. Also, Rigging Only has provided a few things at really good prices and quickly.

hey andi,

at the moment we might beat lake constance with the lowest windspeeds... so 1:1 would work fine, for more wind, well I have 12m and 27 m² of excuse...

Can my current 10 to 1 with a single 40mm blk above the cam, be converted to this configuration?
