Yes, please send a pic if you do not mind, Mark.

Thanks!

Nice photos. We've looked at a lot of them, there's over 3000 in the files here. But that's the first time I remember of the underside of the cockpit lip :)?

Here's my preferred setup and parts list:
  • Harken 2135 ratchet block
  • Harken 150 cam cleat (optional)
  • Spring Cup HSB2
  • Stand up spring H071
  • Eyestrap, LP91100 or H137
  • Stainless steel fasteners (I use machine screws, with a large flat washer and a nylon locking nut on the interior of the boat)
This picture shows all the parts/pieces, but is mounted on my Minifish (slightly different setup because of no cockpit lip).


On my newer Sunfish, I didn't bother with the cam cleat, and just mounted the ratchet block only.?
Stainless steel machine screws, flat washers and nylon locking nuts below the cockpit lip.


A handy trick for installing the stand-up spring: use 2 or 3 zip ties to compress the spring, and then you can install the ratchet block connection to the eyestrap.
