Good essay! Need another one on the snuffer. That is where the problems lie. Was the sail inserted carefully? How did it get twisted inside? Why is it jamming on the hoist? Did the sail come down on the same side it went up? Is it going up on the same side it came down last time?Are the sheets led fair? Do different crew get their mitts on it from hoist to hoist? What's that tangled mess of
line at the foot of the snuffer? Oi,oi the winds UP, time to snuff.NOW WHAT?
Currently we hoist from the mast and take down in the cockpit, just like the big boys. Used snuffer anyone? Cap'n Snowy.
