The centerboard uphaul rigging and tackle consists of Tufnul blocks and Hempex rope. The hardware that is mounted to the seat longitudinal is offset from the surface with 1/2" thick hardwood spacers to prevent the blocks from banging against the wall. Bowline knots used to attach blocks.

Fore of the tackle shown in the photo further up on this page, the centerboard uphaul continues and runs through a stainless fairlead and then over a block and into the centerboard case where it attaches to the centerboard.

Here the Hempex rope is tied in a figure 8 knot coated in epoxy to secure the rope end in the centerboard.

First, I unpacked my Neil Pryde Tanbark SCAMP Sail and laid the spars in position to get an overall look at the rig.

Then I lashed on the peak of the sail to the top of the yard.

Lashing the SCAMP sail throat cringle to the yard

Making the SCAMP yard lifting point. Harken low-friction fairlead strapped into my Hempex rope.

Here is the completed yard lifted strap for the SCAMP Argo. Fairlead seized in place and rope tied with a double sheet bend.

Yard lifting strap installed on the Yard of the Argo approx. 61" up the yard from the throat cringle grommet.

Reef lines at the forward end of the boom: The reefing lines are tied using bowline knots to padeyes on the opposite (starboard) side of the boom, then run up through the reefing grommets, and then back down through the padeyes on the port side of the bow that can be seen above, and then secured to a cleat.

Reefing rigging at the aft end of the boom: Reefing lines at tied to padeyes, using bowline knots, on the starboard side of the boom (the side facing down in this picture), the lines are then run up through the reefing grommets and then back down through the cheek-blocks on the boom, and finally to the cleats on the boom.

The two aft-most blocks can be seen here lashed to the boom. The very aft most block is tied through the clew grommet of the sail. The middle mainsheet boom block is lashed through a padeye which is mounted on top of the boom.

This is the forward most mainsheet block lashed to the boom.

The right side of this photo shows the small outhaul block lashed through the hole in the end of the boom. The outhaul line is secured to the clew of the sail with a bowline knot, the run through the outhaul block, and then forward to cleat on the boom.

Overhand loop knot secures the snapshackle, and then a double sheet bend completes the loop.

And here is the downhaul loop installed on the boom (the block has been unclipped from the snap shackle in this photo)

The tack of the sail is secured to the front of the boom using the hole drilled through the boom. I tied it using a double sheet bend.

First I laid out the boom, yard, sail, and mast. The sail is fully rigged to the yard and boom at this point.

I used an overhand loop knot in the middle of the long lazy jack line to secure the center of the lazy jack line to the mast head padeye. The yard halyard can also be seen in its block at the masthead in this photo.

The Argo's lazy jack system will feature aft and forward legs. The forward loop of the lazy jacks starts somewhat midway down the main laxy jack line, and the foreward leg needs to be tied such that it will not slip up and down the main lazyjack line, so I tied an overhand loop knot at this point in both the starboard and port main lazy jack lines.

Then to the loop attachment point that I had tied in the middle of the main lazy jack line, I tied on the forward legs with a bowline knot.

Here you can see the port side of the sail with the two-legged lazy jack laid out on it. In practice the front leg of the lazy jack will loop around the boom more forward of where it is laid out in the photo.

8mm x 55ft Hempex mainsheet. Bowline know secures it to the becket on the block in the lower left of the photo, and then it is rove through its remaining blocks. To attach this to the traveler, the block-with-becket in the lower left will be pinned to the block that is on the traveler.

Looking forward under sail. I should hoist the yard a bit higher to avoid the downhaul blocks getting so close, but its OK.

I am very pleased with my adjustable traveler cleats on both starboard and port sides.
