I'm in the process of restoring N12 2958 Purfect, 1977 Cheshire Cat. Thinking ahead could I ask if rigging with a dangley pole eliminates the setting up of barber hauler? The mast has no evidence of being rigged with a dangley pole and there is a set of holes in the deck just foward of the shrouds that I think correspond with barber hauler lines to control the jib shape and slot. I have previously sailed Laser and Solo dinghy so the complexity of boats like the N12 and Merlin Rockets etc are a new experience.
Really excited about getting the N12 finished and sailing again after a long time away from dinghy racing. The appeal of the N12 is introducing my grandsons to dinghy sailing.
