I also set my #3 between the shrouds especially when racing using our newer #3. For cruising, I've taken to setting snatch blocks on the rail. This works well for our delivery #3 which is rather blown out (allows us to close the top of the sail, plus I don't have to worry about the knot on the jib sheet catching and potentially kinking the rod rigging.) Has anyone had a #3 built which is shorter on the foot so you can sheet inside the lower diagonal? How does that work? On my boat ('83 Liberty Cup) the track on deck ends just short of the chain plates (and extends back past the primaries.) I've noticed other boats have the track running farther forward. Did you move your track forward or did it come from the factory this way? Was this done to get good sheet angles for #3's and #4's? |
