Tom, The Enterprise-A was a C&C 34, which was very similar to yours. While I can say universally that you should disconnect the babystay when using the chute, I’ll state that the answer to your other questions, at least for me, depends on conditions.
A single sheet and single guy, going end to end, is the simple way in light air, however, I would suggest the flexibility of changing how you do things when wind conditions increase. In moderate air I would add lazies. In heavy air, you and your foredeck ape will probably prefer to dip the pole, so that one end is always attached giving you better control. Skills-wise, your crew will also appreciate knowing how to handle various setups. As I said, no matter what, you’re going to want that babystay off, especially since your pole uphaul will help keep the pole up during those jibe maneuvers, and it will get caught up in the babystay if it’s fully attached doing an end-to-end jibe. It will be impossible to do a dip-pole jibe with a babystay in place. All the best, Edd -------------------------------—--- Edd M.
