I considered adding the Seldon sprit but my anchor ‘roller’ doesn’t leave enough room for the pole diameter recommended. Was this not a problem on your respective boats? Or did you modify the roller assembly to allow the sprit to fit? Charlie Nelson Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS On Mo

Stus-List Re: Asymmetrical Spinnaker outside jibe

Chuck, the owners manual lists spinnaker sheets for a 37/40 as 7/16x65 feet.  Not sure what length mine are but 65 may be a bit short for an outside gybe. It may be sized for a symmetrical spinnaker.  I think I would add the foot dimension of your sail or at least consider it if you measure. Len Mi

Mike's right. I'm learning each PHRF group treats a sprit differently. Chesapeake Bay PHRF allows moving the assym tack forward up to 10% J without penalty to alow anchor rollers to be used. On my boat, a 35.5' long boat with 178" J, that's 17", which seems generous. But I want to install

Matthew, you probably want to have a short, dedicated gybing tack line. Attach it prior to the gybe (I'm thinking "inside" of pole). Gybe pole and pre-set it, then gybe sail. When done, remove temporary tack line. At least that's how I hope it will work. I've never done it but will find out

I have never done this in heavy air, but in light/moderate wind the outside jibe for me is a non-event. The only issue would be in really light stuff not letting the boat run over the sheets if the sail goes slack. In really light stuff - no winches needed - I manage both sheets to pull the sail

I have been thinking about ordering long sheets for my “reacher" (A sail) to be able to do outside jibes. All the videos I have seen for this technique have the spinnaker tack on a sprit or attached forward of the headstay. That seems pretty simple, but I don’t have an attachment point there.
