Re: mainsheet idea

["Robert Harper" <rharper@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Oh and by the way. If you add purchase, you'll add to the amount of sheet  
you'll have top pul to pull the sail in. With the standard setup, you can  
pretty much go from full out at the dowse, hook up if you aren't already,  
grab the sheet at the boom and go out as you round up and have the main  
all the way in. If you add a 2:1, you increase the sheeting you'll have to  
do and increase the friction for easing out as well. The rules allow you  
to do it but I've not felt the need.

Other's results may vary.
