(the amended text is shown below in red)
ISAF has recently approved a specification change by the designer allowing new Tasars to be fitted with RCB shroud tracks and slide cars.
The purpose of this Interpretation is to enable RCB shroud tracks and
slide cars to be fitted to existing Tasars as a substitute for the stainless
steel
C section track and brass slides currently used.
With immediate effect a 19mm RCB system comprising the following fittings or their equivalents may be fitted to existing Tasars –
2 x Ronstan RC11902 Cars
4 x Ronstan RC11980 Track Ends
1 x Ronstan RC1190-1.0 track
2 x Clamcleat CL 268AN Cleats
4 x Ronstan RF 1850S Shackles
An under-gunwale rigid load-bearing backing plate of solid 18mm alloy or stainless bar which extends approximately 75mm past each end of the track, or equivalent.
Measurements:
The track shall be fitted with bolts to the backing plate that shall
fit into the gunwhale groove.
The distance between the bow U bolt, measured as shown at deck level,
to the forward track end bolt hole shall be
a minimum of 2125mm and a maximum of 2135mm. Car travel must not exceed
140mm.
