Please do. But what is the rationale? It seems to me that at 10:1 the sheet wouldn't pay out quickly enough in extreme winds and there would be lots of "string" on the tramp.

Also, at my last outing at GYC, Stefan says he stopped using the main sheet all together (12-15 knots). Instead he used the downhaul to depower in the worst of the gusts. Comment?
