Abstract
The invention relates to a rig for a windsurfing board in which the clew (8) of the sail (2) prior to tensioning and trimming of the sail (2) is fixed in location in a stern fitting (10) of the wishbone boom (3). The stationary fixing can either be done preprogrammed with the aid of a scale, whereupon the wishbone boom (3) is fixed to the mast in that it is pushed downwardly from above and engaged, or a fixed point is established which holds the clew (8). In this embodiment the trimming of the said (2) is made in the bow fitting (11) in that the connection (15) between the mast (1) and wishbone boom (3) is constructed in such a manner that the mast (1) is displaceable longitudinally to and fro with respect to the wishbone boom (3) and lockable.
