Al,
Bring the halyard down inside the zipper of the jib.
If you really want adjustment there is aheap of ways of getting luff tensioning back to your man beam.

Many people these days don't bother adjusting the luff of the jib especially if they are running spinnakers or just sailing wild downwind.
So even people without spinnakers are tending to set it before the race and forget it.

It you are stuck on adjusting it a wire down one or both bridle wires can help bring it back and depending on the purchase you want a 2:1 at the bridle intersection and another 2:1 between the bridle fitting and main beam is possible.
If sailing a tornado with the new jib it could be brought back along the spinnaker pole. Personally, I'd KIS and just set it between races.

Regards,
Phill


I know that the voices in my head aint real,
but they have some pretty good ideas.
There is no such thing as a quick fix and I've never had free lunch!
