■ IF YOU HAVE A SHORT TOP FOIL
If top foil is:
Less than 15" (381 mm) with Norseman, Sta-Lok or rod eye;
Less than 19" (483 mm) with a swage marine eye.
Refer to Charts below.
Swage Eye: Recess the top connector 3 - 6" (76 - 150 mm)
to allow the top of the foil to ride on the shoulder of the
marine eye.
■ CONNECTOR & FOIL QUANTITY
Refer to the Top Foil Length Worksheet.
Unit 3/3.25 requires the same number of regular connectors
as the number of foils. (Exception: OPTION A/B = Use one
fewer regular connector than foils.) In addition, a trim cap
and long bottom connector are required.
■ CUTTING TOP FOIL
Once you have checked the top foil length, cut the top foil.
Deburr and clean all shavings from the foil.
Important: Failure to deburr or clean the inside of the foil
may cause it to seize to a connector when installing on rod.
Rough up the top 1" (25 mm) of the foil using a file or
sandpaper.
TIP: With longer top foils, a 10" (254 mm) recessed top
connector is used as a bushing for the halyard swivel.
This is a problem with shorter top foils. Do not use this
10" (254 mm) top bushing with short top foil lengths.
