Sheet attachment for Spinnaker


Recommended Posts

Posted

Currently I am using simple bowlines to attach the spin sheets. Unfortunately these catch on the side stays and forestay and are a bit heavy. Does anyone have a more streamlined and lighter approach they would like to share?

 

Thanks in Advance

We sail with North and Quantum chutes. I use simple figure eight knots on the inside of each clew of the chute.

Use figure eight knots on the OUTSIDE of the kite. that way you'll only snag the backstay/sidestays of your competitors.
