Looking to add home made lazy jacks and having read most of the threads, I had this brilliant thought to tie the upper ends to the spreaders on either side of the mast...as I thought others had done. But, upon sober reflection, I wondered about what happens when the boom swings out. Even if the lines were fastened close to either side of the mast, I can see the lines twisting or pulling the boom on a reach or run if they are too tight. On the other hand, if they are left with enough slack, it would seem they would sag and not work well. Obviously one solution is to pull the jacks to the mast while sailing, or run the the ends aloft down through a pulley and slack them. But it seems like there are a number of people who just manage to leave them up all the time. How?
