I have had reasonable success preventing the jib sheets snagging on the baby stay by running the baby stay through a piece of 1-1/8” ID PVC tubing about 4’ long. The cap from a Davis Instruments PVC Turnbuckle Boot (about $6.00) was used at the top. I happened to have the tubing, but if I did

I like the idea, but if, as someone said, a bowline could be shaken off, this soft shackle could even easier. I use the luggage tag knot and it works well. I managed to untie it without major effort (though, using an awl), when I replaced my jib a couple of seasons ago. Marek C270, “Legato” Ot

I guess it depends on the kind of lines you're using on the sheets, their diameter, and perhaps how fresh they are.. I started doing the luggage tag when I bought new sheets last year. They are nothing exotic, 1/2" New England Ropes Sta Set. So far it's really easy to undo no matter how much

I can confirm that 1/2-inch is the correct diameter seal for A&H hatches. I replaced mine about a year ago. Originally I ordered 5/8-inch diameter from A&H thinking bigger is better but I couldn't close the hatch with 5/8-inch seals. 3/8-inch is definitely too small. Bob Boyer Sent from my
