Fireball Rigging Information

May 2010

Hi fellow fireball enthusiasts,

On my visits to various Forums dedicated to the Fireball, one of the most frequently asked questions is "How do I put all the wires and ropes on my new (old wooden :-) boat?"

Hopefully this website will give you a little help.

On the left are links to detailed photos of the rigging of Fireball K14058, and an excellent set of schematics produced by Rob Granville.

If you use the two together then, hopefully, you will find enough to get your boat on the water.

There are also many other resources. For example I used the Draycote Water website to help me so please visit them.

Here are some links to help.

Also included on the links to the left is the link to the photostory of how I came to be a Fireball sailor and a bit more about the boat. If you are interested feel free to check it out.

Any questions please follow the link to the photostory, go to the Contact page and I will do what I can to answer your questions.

All the best and happy sailing.

Ian
