The manual is available for download from www.dragonforce65.com
Link L- http://dragonforce65.com/instruction-manual/

Pictures in this are much clearer. There are a couple of recommended and permitted alterations to the sheeting also.

If you cannot work an area out, post again mentioning the area, happy to help...

Hi There, I just got in from the pool where I saw a Dragonforce rigged with white cord. A good contrast to the black hull and booms, made it look really good. :-)) Graham
