Jib sheet questions and hand wringing

... Typically, one uses more than one line when going up the mast to prevent just this sort of thing. Are you sure it's "typical"? I would agree that it's smart, advisable, damn good idea, etc. It might even become universal unless it turns out that the creationists and intelligent design wacko's are correct. When I look at the foolishness that goes on around me, I'm not sure "typical" is a word I would want to defend in this case When you're right, you're right. For those of us who have a clue, typical is the right word, but I guess I mis-typed... typical is the case with someone who is smart enough to realize the downside to not doing it. That problem usually sorts itself out rather quickly, and one can then apply for a Darwin Award. :-) -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
