Hi all,
I'm considering buying what is called the "Laser Clew Sleeve" sold on the APS website. It's a metal clew sleeve that is supposed to be the "all in one" solution to the outhaul and clew tie-down. Has anyone tried this out?

I currently use a regular velcro clew tie-down. I attach a bungee from the jam cleat on the boom to the clew tie-down so when I release the outhaul, the sail's foot is motivated to loosen. Would the Laser Clew Sleeve eliminate the need for this bungee?
