Asymmetrical tips
Andy, I have a asymmetrical spinnaker on my 37C. Here's my two tips. 1) I highly recommend a dousing sock. 2). When jibbing, the sheet being loosened becomes very slack in order to let the sail come around the front of the forestay. Many times it gets tangled with things and one time it got under the boat and caught in the prop. So, I cut it off. Now I use just one sheet and when jibbing, I walk the sheet up to the front of the boat, around the forstay and back again (requires someone else to steer the boat). This works alot better for me. I might also mention that since I don't race, I very seldom use the asymmetrical spinnaker. It just came with the boat. I don't think I would spend money to buy one. There are too many better ways to spend the money. Bob Miller "Gusty Getaway" Everett, WA
