"I like a nice tight luff"Luff tension is used to position the max draft in the correct location. Some where a round 35% to 40% on a foresail. Halyard tension in adjusted for wind strength continuously.
Wow, thanks all .. my mail client wasn't updating so I didn't even think
that my original post made it to the list! I just started another thread,

Some troubleshooting tips from a Harken manual that may apply to others
Sail will not furl or is difficult to furl.
Jib halyard is wrapping around headstay because
angle between mast and and halyard is too shallow
See installation instructions regarding optimal halyard angle. It may be

It could be as simple as too much tension on the forestay. If you try and
