asymmetric spinnaker

[john churchill]

i tried my new asymmetric spinnaker today. had it up on 2 separate occasions and it worked great. i had made some parrel beads to attach it to the furled jib, used a single sheet but did not try tacking or gybing. i think it would be possible if i had either used a sock or had another set of hands. it was a little scary at first, but all went well. thanks for everyone's advice.

John,
Glad to hear it went well! Didn't fly mine Sunday, as we had 20 - 25 knot winds out of the SW! It is an impressive sail though, isn't it? See my post at the top of the BBoard for what happened to me on Saturday. If you have any suggestions, they would be appreciated.
