Ok...the thermometer just hit 30 and I'm all in thinking about getting the
boat chores done...

So a question:  I purchased a new asymmetrical cruising chute last year.
Of you experts out there with cruisin' chutes...what is your arrangement
for securing the tack at the bow of the boat?  Years ago, with hank-on
sails, wire forestay and a downhaul with single snapshackle to forestay, I
could attach the chute to the forestay easily, and actually tack with the
chute going under the forestay (old Columbia 26-2).

I have seen the tacking sleeve used on some boats, and certainly have a
regular and whisker poles, but are there other creative ways to attach and
rig a cruising chute on a 35-3 or others?  Thanks in advance for keeping my
spring hallucinations going...
