Bridgehugger Old Salt Posts: 112 Registered: Sep 2004	posted 11 April 2009 07:55 AM I have found a piece of 6mm cord about 300mmm long with a ball attached tied to the last halyard tie point on the spinnaker. Can anyone enlighten me as to what that would be for? Cheers Rob IP: 122.148.137.153

This may stop the head of the spinnaker from being pulled too far into the sock. i.e. it creates a 300mm spacer between the tie off point and the next patch on the spinnaker. Brad IP: 122.111.10.141
