this looks good Josh though I fear the Alpine Butterfly knot would catch on my baby stay the same way my continuous genoa sheet (secured to clew with luggage tag knot) does now. I would love to remove the baby stay but I can't find any information on rig stability if I were to do so. Any opinions/wisdom from listers regarding giving the baby the boot?
