Hello,

 

I have a question.
Can someone tell me how to mount a single row truss? I can only find something through multiple rows.
Many Thanks

Hello,

If i have a double row truss i take the one line and go around the yard. Then back through the block and down to deck. The other line is the same. I hope this is correct.

But if i have a single row truss i don´t know how attach the line on the yard.

Hi Helli

What vessel/year/nationalilty  is your model and which mast and yard are you referring to?  The type of truss varied with each of these.

Sorry about that

each image was uploaded with the source in it's name... eg:

Truss Parrel pg105-5 (-5 means 5th image from the page) The Masting + (and) Rigging of ESOW  (English Ships of War 1625-1860 by James Lee)

If you copy them out you will have the info

 

I thought for some reason it would display if you hovered your mouse over them

They don't seem to carry that info through in the title.  Since you attributed in your post, no problem.    Maybe add the attibution to the first post next time.   I have a motto that applies here..... "stuff happens".
