[quote=nohuhu][quote=Dogboy]You can wait until just before you’re ready to launch (i.e. everyone is geared up, boat is loaded) before hoisting the jib. Or you can hoist the jib, disconnect the blocks from the clew, manually wrap the jib around the forestay, and then tie the clew to keep the sail from un-spooling. When you’re ready to sail, un-wrap the jib and connect the blocks.

Even with my furling sail, I do this when I store the boat. I use a shackle that's easy to remove (not a quick disconnect) and wrap the sail and put a bungie ball around the clew.
As long as the waters not to deep for you to reach, this works great.[/quote]
