Reply to: P16 "Jib Sheet and Jam preventer" help

[quote=Andinista]You can put an eye strap on the mast. The jamming doesn't happen under tension, so it shouldn't slide on the dolphin striker. A clove hitch knot will do. The jamming occurs when the jib sheets touch the mast on each turn. If you wait until the jib is backwinded before changing sheets, chances of jamming are less, as the jib will go quickly to the other side. That will also help with tacking if you have troubles with that. It won't help win regattas though<!-- editby --><em>Edited by Andinista on Aug 07, 2014 - 06:29 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
