Hi,
Thanks for the posts. I've fitted one to my boat (Shipman 28) but haven't yet tried it out. I'm still working out where all the bits of string go and which ones do what. Everything looks in good order (plus I had a new pendulum oar made - out of cedar - didn't know if that was the right wood but the old one looked similar in grain, etc) but I won't know until she's in the water. I got the pdf's from the Kingfisher (?) site and they were helpful, but was just wondering if anyone has any tips.
Thanks Keith

Don,t be mean with the blocks Kieth, decent dia sheaves and minimise the number of them as far as poss to cut down on friction, oh and good non stretch lines. I had a couple of cam cleats on the tiller for adjusting. Bill.
