[quote=MN3]you can't go 90* on a boat with side stays (shrouds) that are behind the front beam
going on a deep downwind run you should be able to travel out (at least to your hiking straps) and sheet out
if you have a stopper knot preventing you from doing this you need to correct that ASAP ( you dont want to get caught in a big blow and not have enough mainsheet to work with)[/quote]
