Re: 2017 lagoon reefing system
|
we have a preventer line from the end of the boom to a block on the toe rail then up to a winch. When the main comes down the preventer is put on the winch, tightened up and the boom doesn't swing. In a stiff breeze the hanging reefing lines do have a tendency to blow backwards and can wrap around, snag, the end of the boom. Have to be careful of that for the next time you raise the main. When the main is down for any significant amount of time i throw the slack up into the stack pak. Joe Sea OF Love L440 BVI

You need to go up and put them in the sail bag. ?Good reason to get a small boat.? No issue getting up there on a 380. We always lower the boom so it rests on the hardtop bimini. No swinging boom,? no swinging lines.?
