Yes.  I puzzled over this for 2 seasons, and experimented with ineffective 
solutions until I f inally, seriously, cleaned and lubricated the head swivel 
while catching up on maintenance stuff.   I did not  connect this with the 
wrapping at all as 
It had always seemed to turn very freely however it turns out it was binding 
under heavy load.
 I had checked it but could not replicate without the sail set so I could never 
actually see the cause.  It was Dangerous at times and just a real hassle other 
times. 
After cleaning and lubricating the swivel, it spins even more freely, a 
noticeable difference once you have a comparison.  
Hasn’t jammed or wrapped since.
