[quote=MN3]i occasionally sail in heavy air and even with an over sized jib.. i never use them (ratcheting feature). If it is on.. i turn it off (if i realize they are on)
i also don't wear gloves often (maybe when using the spinnaker in 15-20) and have no trouble controlling the jibsheet...BUT i do use high tech dynema blend lines (on the sheets). they are much softer than regular line, and don't hold water (nor do they seem to give rope burns easily)<!-- editby --><em>edited by: andrewscott, Jun 23, 2009 - 09:08 AM</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
