In Response To: Re: Self tacking jibs, tips (Frank Ladd)

Yes Frank it is possable. I have only had this new club out twice so it may just be learning curve. I do agree that the horses are a very good idea. The jib foot hooked bad with the short club. I really need to play some more with this before I do anything else. I may beed to spill the main and chinch the jib in a bit tighter with this configuration. I nornally hold the main centered till hte nose crossed and then let her slip over. What do you think?
