What a load of **** /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

IMH ( /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif ) O the faults are that the car is (possibly) too far forward and the starboard jib sheet is tight. The tracks are well inboard which is great for sailing to windward with a small jib but a pain once you come off the wind. The outboard "sheets" (outside the shrouds) are probably for the spinnaker .

Actually I take some of that back - the genoa appears to be incorrectly rigged on a self tacker designed for a much smaller jib . Not sure about the outer cars - could be spin guys ? or for downwind sailing ( I have used spare sheets outside the guard wires in the past)

Have done this several times in order to bring the fore closed inboard,but usually sheet down further aft in order to flatten the sail.
