I found it comes in handy when you need to work on something or fix lunch and the autopilot is dead. The boat holds steady. With sails down and drifting, work or food prep will be much harder.

To me, heaving-to implies boat handling is a problem, conditions are heavy for the boat. Geny should not have been up to begin with #4 gib or rolled up geny is the only time I can really heave to. Otherwise I'm doing 4-5 kts with a backed up head sail. If conditions are not heavy, and I need to fix something, I just let the boat drift instead of heaving to.

It seems to me that if it is done the weather genny sheet would chafe a good deal on the weather shrouds. Am I missing something?
