RIGGING & TUNING

Whether you’re new to the class or you’re already familiar with your boat, it’s important to take time to check your boat before every sail to ensure your boat is correctly rigged. This will ensure you have an enjoyable sail and it may also prevent you damaging your kit.

On this page you can find some useful documents to properly rig your Musto Skiff, such as the CE Owners Manual, rigging guides, and rope cutting lists.

If you are new to the class you can find additional information on the ‘Boat Set Up’ page here.
