Does anyone have pic that shows how to tie the shock cord to the dolphin striker and around the mast? The way I do it doesn't look too elegant, plus the ends seem to slide along the dolphin striker towards the center. 🙄

Thanks,
Dan

Try putting a shockcord from the bridal wires to the point on the mast where the diamond wires end. Worked well on my P-19 when I had it and works well on my Nacra 6.0 now.

you can see mine goes from just below the jib furler drum and attaches to the mast (by a line tied to each spreader wire)

on my H18, i had a small eyestrap on the mast and would attach the preventer from the ends of the beam to that point...
