Turns out, in my view, the success of spinnaker set, gybe and take down is controlled at the helm. When the boat is correctly driven through the maneuver the job on the foredeck is much more manageable. Please don't tell my wife the skipper. Dave. K SLY 1975 C&C 33 Sent from my iPad > On Dec 5

On Windburn we do end-for-end due to carrying an oversized pole. The J is 13.5' and the the pole is 14.4'. We normally do not have guys. If there is difficulty keeping the chute stable and helping out foredeck by steering the chute try centering the main for a moment just as they are about to snap

I have never done anything but dip-pole gybes on our C&C 35. We have also done "chicken gybes" where you drop the spinnaker totally and rehoist it on the other tack. We did this a couple of times in heavy air and thought we were being total wussies until we realized we gained a few boats over th

Charlie, While many consider 35-36 feet the upper limit for end for end gybes, we use end for end with an aluminum pole on Touche' (35-1). With the right technique, you shouldn't have issues. I've been doing foredeck since the mid 90's. I think the key to a good, and safe, end for end gybe is t

I've been using dip pole gybes for the past forty years. I even did it that way with my thirty foot Ericson, before getting my present boat. Dip pole gybes are always safer, since you don't have to disconnect the pole from the mast. the crew just needs practice. Get out and gybe back and forth
