Ed, thanks for the info. I'll be ordering my jib sheets today (I'm going to the one line, much easier). Thanks, Art.:)

I am going to replace the sheets on my jib and have a few questions. I just bought my boat last summer and the jib had two sheets attached, right and left. In the owners manual it just shows 1 sheet. Is it best to have two lines as opposed to one, and what knots are used to secure to the jib...

Bradley, I really appreciate all your hard work and efforts. The webstie and forum are fantastic. Hope those hackers can get a life, or a Capri! I noticed that you are in Savanah? I will be in Hilton Head 4/22 -30 so if you need a sailing hand anytime that week let me know. I'm pretty...
