We use the spinnaker twing also. Opens up the slot nicely. Gary

With a snatch block we use the lazy sheet to run through the block and then switch sheets.

I was thinking of a snatch block on the toe rail and a line snap shackled to the clew attachment point to accomplish this. However, I have also seen people using their whisker pole on the leeward side to hold the genoa clew outboard and up. Has anyone compared these options? The pole seems more of a hassle, but should be more effective.
