OK - definitely needs some tension on the luff (in the pic)

Couldn't get any tension on the jib halyard either at that point.

I think I'm convinced now to keep the tensioner. A whole lot is
obviously good and not having everything that tight 24/7 at the dock
is probably worth the inconvienience of climbing around it.
