Thanks for all the good advice. Scott, I opted to make the adjustment of my cars span the entire track for several reasons. 1. I have a 130% roller furlable cruising sail and when I am cruising I like being able to roller reef it and just move the cars up. 2. I am using my standard genoa cars at the aft end of the track to prevent overrides and found it very effective. Before the overrides were fairly common and were most common when using the 3 beacuse the sheet comes at the winch high. I was concerned that the #2/3 genoa car would be in the way if I had to lead a #3 sheet past them to the car I have at the aft end. 3. Since I am using my original cars at the aft end, I did not want to spend the money on another set of cars. Also, I do not have any shock cord on the adjustable car. I find the sheet load is more than enough to make the car go aft. |
