I put some of that white vinyl over my baby stay to get it to pass over.

Subject: Re: Stus-List Stus list Soft shackle
I am interested in this discussion as I find the sheets routinely hang up on the baby stay no matter what I have tried. I am tempted to detach the baby stay next season when the winds are lighter. I went from two bowlines to two soft shackles and that was a bit better. Last season I passed bitter end through the cringle and then through the spliced loop. That is cleaner than the soft shackle but makes sail changes more complex. Since I don’t change sails very often, that was not a big problem. Any other thoughts on preventing hanging up appreciated.
