2014-01-02 Thread David Knecht
this?  I can’t see that the cunningham and reef line can’t be dual purpose.  My concern is whether you can get enough tension on the Cunniingham to get the luff tight when you crank on the halyard without putting too much force on the blocks that the Cunningham runs through on the deck.  Dave David
