I’m wondering what size and length other owners use for sheets/guys for their spinnakers. The FO left me a collection of lines and four spinnakers ( ½, ¾, 1-½ oz. symmetrical & cruising). It doesn’t appear that I have anything for my cruising spinnaker and will need both sheets and a tack

Ron, For the symmetrical the 80' sheets you have should be long enough, but they may be hard on the hands in a breeze. I use the spin pole downhaul as a tack line. I added a shackle to the bow stem and move the snap shackle on the downhaul to the bow stem shackle. I know APS and others recommend

If you do install a swivel, you may have to add a shackle so the swivel doesn't ride down the anchor and jam sideways. That's how I left a 35-lb Delta on the bottom of Montague Harbour. Jim Watts Paradigm Shift C&C 35 Mk III Victoria, BC On 17 August 2015 at 23:28, Knowles Rich via CnC-List wrot

A swivel is a weak point on the anchor. When I set up my anchor I had to make sure that when the anchor came up it was clocked right on the chain. I just wish my roller furler was higher so the anchor shank would clear, but the PO didn't consult me on that.  Doug MountjoysvPegasusL
