at mine

On my 36 it attaches to the boat with a bow shackle.   I had the cable made and 
then sized it at the boat using wire clamps..

Thanks all!  Guess I should not worry about it.  I'm still new and this seemed 
strange or bad.

Lorne,
 
Get out the roach spray!  As others have said, not a big deal. Your main has 
some extra roach. Both of my mains do also. Wouldn't have it any other way. 
 
The only time it will be an issue is light air. Then, like others have 
suggested, give the back stay a whack, drop the traveler or ease the sheet. 
 
Some sport boats have a lot of extra roach. Look for rigs that have a spring 
crane? that lifts and pulls aft the back stay to allow the main to pass. Not 
sure if crane is the right term. 

Again a caution to all about sailing with a wire topping lift. They will chafe 
the batten pockets a you'll eject a batten. They don't float.

I have the same issue and what we do on light air days is lower the halyard a 
few inches and use the cunningham to tighen the luff, you are not effecting the 
foot usually.

Spray the roachy bit of the main with McLube, helps it slide through much 
easier.

The C&C motif on sail covers is my favourite. I would take it to modify, but 
it's probably better off with someone who needs one that big in the first 
place. I do need a new cover though.

Tom,

Looks a little different than mine, but mine is getting a little ratty, so, if 
nobody has grabbed it yet, I would be interested.

If still available, I can send you a pre-paid UPS shipping label by email. 


All the best,

Edd

If you want it, just cover the shipping cost and it's yours.  It's in  really 
good shape...see for yourself.
