thank you gents , at least i can now start running the sheet lines back into the hull , ive managed to increase the length of the sail arm by another 1/2 inch , which should increase the sheet line by another inch ! unless it was badly set up by its owner the sails wouldnt fully open out ? most of my mods have been sorted , not sure the best thing to do with the very flexible keel fin yet , which is also stress cracking where the studding runs through its centre core ?  rudder was easy its now 3mm thick stainless steel !
