The genoa furling line runs through two turning blocks and bulls eyes down the stb deck and back to the cockpit. The remaining control lines for the sheets and mainsail run over the salon cabin top. The genoa wire halyard is permanently set on its own mast mounted rack and will not require adjusting under normal conditions. The topping lift is adjusted at the mast base, it should be noted that the topping lifts main function is to support the boom during the launching and recovery of the dinghy. A dedicated boom compression strut supports the boom weight when raising or lowering the mainsail.

The mainsheet traveler runs above cockpit level on its own arch moulding, the control lines exiting at the base of the arch on the stb side through two rope clutches.
