How and when do you use your OZ? I can only remember changing
them once in SF.

What is a double tab jib ? or a tab for that matter ?

Peter S/Y Anicula



Jibs are hanked onto the forestay by a small piece of webbing and a
press stud or two.
With double tabs, one set is slightly longer and allows the jib luff
to take the curve of a soft forestay when in fact the stay is much
straighter because of the amount of backstay required for mainsail
shaping.
