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

The one advantage to having an ATN-type tacker or pole setup is that it brings the tack closer to the centerline, which gets more sail out from behind the main. It should give you more speed. Both inside gybe and outside gybe are done outside the forestay. Inside gybe has lazy sheet pass betw
