If I set a spinnaker with a starboard pole and drop the headsail on the port side I will have the starboard headsail sheet over the pole. If I then jibe the kite what is ment to happen to the starboard headsail sheet?
been a long time since i used a kite but
....as long as the headsail sheet is outboard of the kicking strap and topping lift, when you take the old brace off the pole during the gybe, the headsail sheet should just fall to the deck if you had had the headsail sheet over the top of the pole????????????????? ![]()
obviously using a kite is not like riding a bike..one does forget ![]()
if for whatever reason you need to swap the jib to the other side with the kite/pole up... make sure you change the sheets too! Things get very pear shaped at the leeward mark when you don't!
