This would mean the inverse of the instructions from Rooster?
Apologies keen to double check :)
Many thanks

you can have whatever colour you want. It is helpful to have the cunningham and outhaul different colours. I also recommend you have the cunningham in the front cleats, a tip I learned from Marc Jacobi. You are adjusting the cunningham often and it is easier in the front cleats.

Hi all,
I have recently purchased a used Aero and inherited a Rooster Overdeck Control Line kit.
The is my first Aero and I have not sailed for 20+ years, exciting times!
The query is about the kit.
Its complete, however I am a bit confused by the contents, it containts x2 Grey Ronstan Shocks and Grey Control Line.
However when I look at the kit on RSSailing I can see x2 Red Ronstan Shocks and a Red Control Line.
Is this because the kit I have is a bit old and the colour scheme has evolved.
With little knowledge I am tempted to get Red Shocks and Red Line (not sure if this is Class Legal, I have no checked the Rules).
The motivation is the colour differentiation, for me it will be stronger and I suspect might help me when I need to think fast.
I am keen to get the kit installed prior to ramping up my sailing time so I familiarise myself with the colours.
Any advice would be much welcome.
Cheers
Tim
