That method would have worked for our 27 too, but "Big Bertha" is geared so low that to move the sling tower would have taken much longer than just tying the two slings together.Neil Gordon wrote:...He does carefully adjust the distance between the slings so that the angle of the forward sling prevents it from slipping. He's experienced launching sailboats and as far as I know, hasn't lost one yet.ronkberg wrote: I noted that the rigger had the two slings tied together and I believe that is what keeps the forward sling stable.
