 Topic: Extending genua tracksPosted: 12 January 2013 at 11:11 |
|
Hi all,
For a new front sail I would like to extend my genua tracks. I have a hanse from the year 2004. Does anyone know if this model has the re-enforcements to extend the tracks and if there are any drawings available. Kind regards, Michiel |

Hi Michiel, I will try
to describe, maybe I don’t use the right English words, but trust you understand. You
guide the sheets from the forward genoa track down to the lower genoa track
wagon and back to the genoa winch. There might be a little contact at the
side of the cabin roof, but that friction has not made any damage. I happened to talk to
the person mounting the forward tracks, he explained to me as follows: There are
aluminum plates in the roof prepared by Hanse. They used bolts with nuts on the
inside so had to take down the ceiling plates. Not a complicated job, he
claimed The boat is
covered until end of March so presently difficult to get good pictures of the
arrangement. Anyway, hope
this will help you |

Kato,
Thanks for the good explaination. Were did you buy the genua tracks? Which brand was that. I also want to install them. Ps did you have to remove the ceiling plates in the front cabin or the main cabin. Thanks for your help Michiel |

Hi Michiel
The make is Frederiksen Boat Fittings (Frederiksen
is later taken over by Ronstan). I tried to take some photos, but as the boat
is covered the quality was no good. End of March it will be possible Kato .

Hi Jovani,
Thanks for all the useful information. I am also going to install the roof genua track as well. Next weekend I will check if I also have the reinforcements. Hopefully all finished by the first week of april. Cheers, Michiel

Hi Michiel,
Should not
be too much work to get it all in place. It would be strange if you don’t have
the reinforcement as on my boat. I looked up the original specification when
order from Hanse and any extra reinforcement is not mentioned. Wish you luck!
Cheers, Kato

Hi Kato,
Too bad, but i don't have reinforcements. I will have to make that myself. I also noticed that i have an extra window in the roof. This gives me less space to install a genua track. How far aft do you need to sheet? Thanks, Michiel |

Hi Michiel Pity you
didn’t have the reinforcement in place, but it should not be too difficult to arrange
with aluminum plates on the inside. I believe
the sheeting length depends on your sail, but the sail I got has a length at
the bottom, J length, (underliket in Norwegian, sorry I do not the English word)
of 5.0 m. This should give you an idea. Do you have the 411 sail plan? I tried to copy it in here, but it didn't work. I could PM it to you if you want it. Cheers Kato |

. As the tracks are positioned behind the mast it is only the ceiling plates in the main cabin you have to take down.
