I leave my jib up all season, with a UV strip for protection. Inever leave it overnight without a safety tie.
Fold the line in half, pass the fold through the jib clew, then pass the ends through the fold. I leave the line this way. When sailing the ends just trail alongside the jib lines, & it is always ready when you are done for the day.
On the Mystere, with a 10' beam I cannot stand on one hull & reach the jib clew. I use a gear lock safety pin from a jet. It is the perfect diameter to go trhough the bottom hole of the 10 hole adjuster on top of the drum. A short cable,(with a Remove Before Flight tag) ends in a clip that I attach to the bridle wire. Super quick at the end of the day & cannot come undone.
