[quote=leeboweffect][quote=Edchris177]I thought you had jib furling on your 5.0.
In big wind days, furling that jib when you come in gets rid of those flogging jib blocks, which can destroy your face.[/quote]
No, just a zippered luff jib. And yes, very noisy and potentially dangerous when flogging like that not to mention very hard on the sail.
[quote=Edchris177]At least you have flat water when the wind comes up. We get green water crossing the deck, it rips your feet out from under you, or simply washes you off the tramp if sitting on it.

Yes, relatively much flatter water in high wind conditions on the lake, but you pay a big price in terms of violent wind shifts, typical of man made lakes.[/quote]
