In this article we are going to guide you through building an adjustable toe strap system for your Laser sailing dinghy.
First, undo the existing rope and elastic that is securing your toe strap to your boat. Take this as an opportunity to check over you cockpit fixings making sure they are secure and replace if necessary.
Take your new evolution race rope and tie a bowline to the port eye strap. Make sure to leave a long enough tail so this stays tied up.
Thread the evolution race rope through the hiking strap making sure that the toe strap is the correct way up.
Once you have threaded the rope through the toe strap, grab your CL828-68 Clamcleat and make sure the cleat is facing towards the front of the boat then thread the rope into the slot like in the picture below. Tie a stopper knot on each side of the cleat to keep secure and in place.
Next, thread the race rope round the starboard eye strap and back into the teeth of the cleat.
Take your 3mm off cut and thread it through the two open holes in the centre of the aero base and tie the ends together. This will keep the cleat upright and always ready to use.
You can cut the leftover rope to your desired length or tie it into a rope handle to make it shorter.
If you have any questions about creating this system then get in touch with our friendly team, we are always happy to help. You can call us on 01268 222912 or email info@sailingchandlery.com
My son has just used these gloves for the first time this weekend and he’s really impressed, the warmest gloves he has had ever apparently! Really comfy.
Great bag of rope cut offs. I exactly what I needed. Good amount/variety of rope. Arrived quickly and well packaged. Highly recommended.
Great spinnaker sheet rope, especially as easily tapered myself to exactly what I need.
Fast ordering and delivery, as well as very competitive price.
Perfect.
Usual excellent Zhik quality, hoping it helps keep my slight daughter warm under her wetsuit. Fast delivery from sailing chandlery, and an excellent price.
I wanted to practice making soft shackles, this rope is perfect and a good price. Thank you
I've used these gloves for gardening jobs for a few years now and they have good grip, flexibility and strength.
Excelent but was too big
Thank you for swapping to 30L
My boat is a Leisure18 built 1996 and I have just replaced the Cam Cleats with the identical model after they have probably been on since new.
Ive owned her since 2011. Let's hope the new ones live up to that.
It’s a well thought through cover that’s robust and with fastening clips it’s easier to put off and on. Most of the fastening straps don’t go full width, so easier still. Compared to the £100 one I had before that shredded within 6 months, this is far far superior.
10 out of 10. Exactly what wanted. Good quality and speedily delivered without any hassle.
Great product
Fast service
Good price
Thanks again always worth trawling through he off cuts. The off cuts are good quality and always worth a look if you need some.
Good advice regards flag staff rope on telephone, prompt delivery at a fare price.
Arrived quickly. Also replaced another item which was the wrong sizewith no fuss at all.
Really good service.
Perfect for getting out of wet clothes, and a great fit.
