Hi, I have two sets of cars on my 1988 Capri 22 - one set right in front of the cockpit winches, and one set on the cabin top. I've normally rigged the furling jib inside the shrouds to the cabin-top cars, then to the cars in front of the winch.
This setup seems to make it hard to flatten out the jib when close hauled as it's hard to pull the jib back far enough if the car is forward, and the sheet will rub on the inside of the shrouds if the car is too far back. Should I be skipping the cabin-top cars in some scenarios and running the jib sheets outside the shrouds?
Thanks in advance!
