A couple newbie questions about my San Juan

[DJ Nestrick <djnestrick@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi again all! We got 'Amarillo' home to Daytona Beach
and put her in the water last weekend. Of course, that
led to the first of many projects  :)

1. The outboard wouldn't start of course. It sounded
gas starved, so I will install a new fuel line/hand
pump and see if that corrects the problem. I know the
motor works and we had gas in the tank. Any other
suggestions?

2. The tough one: our working jib was luffing all over
the place when we pointing close to windward. The
lines are set up outboard along pullies attached to
the toe-rail. We were thinking of repositioning the
lines further inboard so we could tighten up the jib
and keep it from snapping and flapping. Has anyone
done this? Is there a better solution?

Thanks!. I hope to have some pics of my beautiful boat
up soon! I'll let you all know....
