Can I ask Barry, is the barber hauler sheet on the Genoa Lew led to the
snap shackle from outside the lifelines or inside?

Dennis, thanks for the detailed info. I'm trying to understand picture it
all, but am unclear on which sheet goes through the snatch block on the

Third, it looks like you found the right part and the right place to buy

platform but you can call during business hours and they will get it sent

First, if you are racing, having the whisker pole on the same side as the
boom may be prohibited in certain jurisdictions.
Barber hauling is a complicated configuration. Basically, you are setting
a triangle using two sheets to change location of the clew of the genoa.

Yeah, what Rob says. Lots of factors can make a boat faster on one tack
than the other.
I've never even come close to assuming Touche' was square, symmetrical or
otherwise perfect. Our boats are imperfect, particularly the older
models.

Thanks for this description of a barber hauler - I will give this a try, as
reaching with the big genoa in lighter air has proven a challenge at times.

Hey,
Generally, the whisker pole is used if you are sailing downwind and the
barber hauler if you are reaching.
On my boat, if I am doing a windward / leeward race, we will have genoa and
mainsail in tight for upwind work. Once we round the mark and head downwind
we will run wing and wing with th
I also only use the whisker pole for wing and wing. You can be creative with

If you have a twing for your chute you can also try that instead of a
snatch block. With a snatch block we use the lazy sheet to run through the
block and then switch sheets.

Hopefully you have a Monday boat – not Friday . . . .
For many years at the Niagara Plant, rum bottles were produced at 3 pm . . . . .
And often workers got home a bit late those days . . .
After a few crashes into snow drifts the practice was curtailed . . . . .

I too am following this thread with interest.
My 33 mkii leans slightly to starboard and is faster on starboard tack.

I was very careful with my mast tuning, so i felt i had eliminated that as
the cause. My water tank and ice box (always full of beer) are on

Or, you could have a Monday morning boat like mine. When I was trying to center
the mast, I discovered the chainplate on the starboard side was an inch closer
to the rail than the port one.

Surely the shrouds are always the same length, so you can see the turnbuckles
to make sure the two sides are similar.
For many years I was told our boats leaned to one side or the other, and that I
should plan on getting them to lean to starboard (the favored tack in the
Bermuda Race) . . . but
I might be stating the obvious, but the boats are not completely symmetrical.
They are, after all, made by hand by humans and they all have various
imperfections. So the shape might be a bit different on stb or port; the boat

I am following this thread with great interest. I measured distances using the
main halyard and believe my mast is plumb. The partners and foot hold the mast

there is problem with the partners (the place where it penetrates the deck)

You usually get a slower speed on one tack due to wave direction. One tack is
always favored as you usually have the waves more head on.
I use the Selden mast tuning method as it can be done on any boat without
special tools. You just need a metric ruler to adjust the shroud tension.

I had the same problem last year. Obviously tide and current can affect that,
but one thing I discovered on my boat is the asymmetry of the genoa tracks. My
genoa is very sensitive to car position/angle of genoa lead. We used to use
the screw heads showing on the track to set the two cars and
What are the symptoms of an uncentered mast? I have noticed that I
regularly see slower speeds on one tack (I need to pay more attention to
confirm which tack) even after trying to tune the sails well, and under
