Re: Jib sheets stuck down the side of the mast


 

So this is the solution I went with in the end - P-clip one side and a hook the other. Seems to work OK so far, both fittings are low enough not to snag the jib sheets.

Now I'm trying to decide whether to remove the original horn cleats from the mast - they're not used anymore as everything goes to jammers now.

Friends who race Enterprises have a velcro secured gaitor that wraps around all the cleaty bits and is easily ripped off if needs be?

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?
