Ezzy Infinity User manual

Your Infinity can be used as a single cam, or no-cam sail.
Removing the cam will flatten the sail’s profile and give it
a “softer”, more maneuverable feel.
A) Switching from Camber to Non-Camber:
Note: it is easiest to switch from cam to non-cam
before the mast is in.
1) With your sail outhauled, release all downhaul tension.
2) Release the batten tensionen from the cambered batten.
3) Remove the cam and batten from the zipper opening on the
sleeve. Store the cam in the pocket on your sail bag.
4) From the leech end, insert the thin end of the batten into the
LOWER batten pocket.
5) Tension the batten.
6) Downhaul using the indicator printed between battens #2
and #3. (note: you will have the same amount of downhaul in
non-cambered mode as you do for cambered mode.
7) Set Outhaul: first, make sure the sail is correctly down-
hauled to the printed indicator between battens #2 and #3,
then release ALL outhaul tension while making sure the bat-
tens are all flipped the same way.This is your starting point at
zero outhaul. Now, adjust the boom to the end of the guide
line. Next, outhaul to the end of the boom. This will be an aver-
age outhaul setting.

B) Switching Back to Camber Mode:
Note: it is easiest to switch from non-camber to camber mode before the mast is in.
1) With your sail outhauled, release all downhaul tension.
2) Release the batten tension on the cambered batten.
3) Slide the batten out from the leech end.
4) Attach the cam to the end of the batten. Make sure the batten seats all the way into the camber pocket and also that the
camber arms are seated into the camber pocket.
5) Open the zipper on the sleeve and insert the batten. Slide the batten in until the camber slides into the batten pocket.
6) At the leech, slip the batten end cap over the end of the batten.
7) Downhaul your sail (see main tuning guide).
8) Tension the camber batten until the sleeve directly in front of the camber is tight (see main tuning guide).
9) Set outhaul (see main tuning guide).
C) Questions:
I can’t get the camber on/off the mast.
1) Make sure the downhaul is completely released.
2) Make sure the sail has quite a bit of outhaul tension.
The batten seems longer at the leech end when in full batten mode.
This is correct, the batten will stick out from the edge of the leech about 1.0 cm more when in full batten mode.
Is it correct, when in non-cam mode, the batten below the boom hits the mast when there is no wind in the sail?
This is correct, when loaded with wind, the batten will move off the mast.
The sail feels less powerful and not as stable with the camber out. Is this correct?
Yes, the camber adds more power and stability to the sail.
Will the boom length be the same between cam and no-cam settings?
Yes.
Will the amount of downhaul be the same between cam and no-cam settings?
Yes.
