Aero Over Deck Controls

If you want to change your Aero Controls, this rather long video is almost real time where the 2017 7 Rig World Champion, Steve Cockerill shows you how you could do it. Kits available from Rooster Sailing and RS Sailing. PLEASE NOTE: Rule amendment - do not attach the two turning blocks to the traveller line - instead tie them to the eye.

I just watched all of this and I don't even have an aero.

Great video thanks Steve Cockerill

What a great idea. Nice video production, too.

Great Idea - ...just bought the kit online :-) But the blocks on the deck will scratch it like the sheet-block already does it on my 2015-boat. It will be necessary to add some protection, maybe tape around the blocks or stickers on the deck Tim

Is there any reason why you don't reuse the original lines?

[@evan1188]

Floris Stapel cant splice them to be continuous lines

[@Tedsbak99]

What is the Dyneema stopper knots On the traveler cord?

[@orlandoyensailing4039]

is it within the class rules

[@roosterkit]

Everything is OK - EXCEPT don not attach the two blocks to the traveller line. Instead - attach them separately to the traveller eye.

Summary of video: Use this to make one of these, then push that through one of those, and you're done! If you want to know what "this" and "that" are, or see what I;'m doing inside my closed hands, you'll have to watch one of the many other videos on the subject to find out. Great! What could be simpler? Just turn this video off and another one on, and with a bit of luck you'll understand the subject. Why aren't all instructional videos as helpful as this?
