Re: Jib sheets stuck down the side of the mast

 

Hi Jonathan
I usually sail with a mast chock set between the forward end of the mast and the foredeck. The chocks are T shaped and this acts as a barrier to the sheet.? Your idea of elastic accord the deck would probably do the same thing.
All the best. Mike H ORINOCO W992

Has anyone else had issues with jib sheets getting trapped between the mast and foredeck, and is there a solution? Got a bit hairy in 25 knots a couple of weeks ago with the jib pinned in after tacking. Would a short piece of elastic across the deck behind the mast be a simple solution, or is there a better way?
