Tom,

Good advice so far.  <35 feet end for end.

My most important advice = train your crew, and especially your helmsperson, to 
visualize the boat turning under the chute.  NOT the chute coming across the 
boat.  Have your crew visualize the chute going dead downwind without changing 
aspect.  The boat just turns back and forth at an angle to the chute.

Practice with your crew in light air.  Have the helmperson make slow, smooth 
turns.  Let the bowman make the pole on the mast.  The bowman stands just to 
leeward of the mast with the new sheet in one hand and the trip line in the 
other hand.  The downhaul and twings (tweakers) get released.  On the command 
"gybing", he releases the pole jaw from the ring, slaps the new sheet in the 
jaw, swings the pole across while releasing the old sheet (new guy) and makes 
the other jaw on the ring.  "Mast - sheet - sheet -mast".  At the last "Mast", 
the main is gybed.  The boat should be about halfway through the turn.  Slow 
turn.  Slow.

If the bowman is having trouble, slow or even stop the turn until the pole is 
made on the mast.

I'm not a big guy.  I've been doing foredeck for many years.  It's a 
choreography between bowman and helmsperson.  The helmsperson has to LET the 
bowman do the gybe.  The bowman should dictate the speed of the turn.  Too 
often, the helmsperson wants to complete the turn before the bow work is 
finished.

Hi all,

I’m looking advice/recommendations on symmetrical spinnaker jibing on my 33 MK 
II

I’ve got a single set of spinnaker sheets

Should a deploy and add lazy sheets and guys?
Or use a twinning line barber hauling system

How to handle the baby stay?  Should I disconnect it and To facilitate a Pole 
dip or do pole end for end jibing.

Appreciate anyone’s thoughts and opinions on this subject.
