Reply to: jib coming across on nacra 5.7

[quote=Wolfman]I actually have the exact same issue on mine. Maybe a few years are slightly different? The preventer works great most of the time sometimes the clew of the jib rides up above it and the blocks hang up on the diamond wires themselves. This always happens when you use the jib to back wind on a tack. You can try to lengthen the pigtail that connects the blocks to the jib or you can make sure you let both jib lines slack so the clew passes the mast by a bit before tightening up the jib line on the new point of sale (what i end up doing). It i wasnt so lazy i'd put a pad eye higher on the mast and just extend the jib preventer up a few more feet. That would likely solve the problem completely.[/quote]
