    Much better!!!

    One of the other things you can do with that storm jib is put a tack pennant (wire or strong synthetic line) on to get it up in the sail plan a little bit..it will work with the mainsail to create a better slot, and it also gets the foot of the sail off the deck in the event a big wave comes over..it won't try to take the sail out with it. I'd raise it maybe 32" - 40" inches.

    Do you have a bigger headsail for light winds?

      I'd like to run away with my home

      the boat came with this sail and a smaller one but Rick (Dromo) has a 150 I'm going to buy from him. had it out of the slip for a bit seems when we raised the mast I wasnt getting it into reverse completely because it handled much better this time. Considering the motor was siezed, there was a bird living in the anchor well and a couple of mice called this home not to forget several wasp nests (should have probably been declared a wild life preserve) it is coming along nicely.

        I am not busting your chops...you are making awesome huge strides...keep up the good work!

        My motor won't even run currently because I haven't finished the re-wiring project yet..
