What I was trying to convey is that you run the jsd off the stern if you have the luxury of sea room. If you have a lee shore, shoal, reef, ect, you will have to activly sail close to the wind to scratch away. Also you would typicaly wait 'till the weather improves to go about retrieving the jsd as to continue avoiding a beat down once you come about to weather.
