Hi Oz,

Like a spinnaker I use seperate sheets from braces (guys)
The sheet when poling out a genoa neads to be set outside everything and through a turning block as far aft as you can get it. Like a spinnaker They stay on the pole when gybing or dousing the pole.


Great Idea. I havent seen it in use before, but it is common sense when thinking about it.

cheers
Oz
