Because I have to launch and land from a dock it would be much easier to do this without the sail up so as to not crash into any other boats on the dock. I'd prefer to paddle out 100' or so and raise everything and then lower around the same location coming in and just paddle to the dock. Because I want to tie down the gooseneck and make the sail easy to tie off/on from the cockpit is there a good way to rig the boat which allows for this? Should I add some cleats somewhere?
I'll also add that we're in a small cover so turning isn't ideal because there are rocks and/or boats in either direction. Being in the cove also means the wind is much different near the dock vs when we get out 75'+ which is another reason to lower the sails so I don't get knocked in the head
