Has anybody heard of a piece of gear called "Skirtlifters" They are some sort 
of device that is used to bring the foot of the genoa to the inboard side of 
the lifeline when tacking. Apparently you do not need to have someone on the 
foredeck to lift the genoa foot over the lifeline in the event of a sloppy tack 
going upwind. From what I know, they were designed by a fellow named Mark 
Halman who raced a Hobie 33. I came across an old post (2008) on Sailing 
Anarchy that mentioned this device but have not had luck finding additional 
information. They are not rollers that attach to lifelines. I'm curious to find 
out what these "Skirtlifters" look like. Any thoughts?
