Jib Tack
The Tack of the Jib shoulb
be as close to the deck as possible. Use a short, straight shackle to reduce the
height off the deck.
Also note the shock cord dead-ending at the bow. This is part of the Spinnaker
pole foreguy setup. It is lead to a turning block at the base of the mast and
up to the topping lift hook. It also doubles as a tie-down for the jib when
it is on deck.
