I don't coil my halyards when I put them in the bag. I drop them in the bag, starting with the bitter end. When I drop the sails, the halyards come out of the bag without any tangles. Alan Bergen 35 Mk III Thirsty Rose City YC Portland, OR On Sat, Aug 14, 2021 at 6:16 PM Dave S via CnC-List

I don’t use bags; instead, I use little hooks with a bungy or cord loop to hang the lines. This way they dry out quickly. And there is no issue of the mess in the bag (spiders, debris). Picture here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lbhrxz6qgpw9s1q/20190618_200045.jpg?dl=0 Marek 1994 C270 ”Legato”

I have Sunbrella bags hanging below the instruments on either side of the companionway. They've worked great for twenty years. See an example here: https://www.sailrite.com/search?keywords=sheet%20bags Alan Bergen 35 Mk III Thirsty Rose City YC Portland, OR On Sat, Aug 14, 2021 at 2:52 PM

Hi Chuck, I run the tails of my halyards and vang down the companionway, and coil each one on the cabin sole in such a way that it can run out freely when needed. The tail of my working genoa sheet is usually coiled on the cockpit bench. The sheet length is such that the lazy sheet only has

Concur wish Josh.  Racing the halyards are drop straight down the companionway, less chance of tangle.  Cruising they are coiled and placed over their winches.. Don Kern C Mk2 /Fireball,/ 12708 Bristol, RI On 8/14/2021 6:33 PM, Josh Muckley via CnC-List wrote: All the cabin top lines just get

All the cabin top lines just get sent down the companionway. They hang straight and stay relatively untangled. The jib sheets are cut to length such that they only have a few feet of tail. Never really have too much problem with just those 2 lines being staged on the cockpit floor or on the

Hey guys, What is everybody using for halyard bags for the lines next to the companionway and also sheet bags for the genoa sheets. Anybody have suggestions? Pictures? Chuck Scheaffer, Resolute 1989 C 34RThanks to all of the subscribers that contributed to the list to help with the costs
