One of the things I LIKE about the masthead rig with baby-stay is that you can pretty much bend the mst and depower the main without effecting the headsail....Not that we have ever needed to do that in practical terms, mind you....
And I would think it would leave the boat a bit unbalanced ....


Never mind, nothing to see here....
