Daniel, you are right the 5/8 jid sheets are overkill. But easy to get a
good hand on. When I replace my 5/8 sheets I am thinking that I will probably
go with the 9/16. A little thinner but still easy on the hands. Although with
the fancy lines out there you can find 1/2 in line that i
Thanks to all for the responses. I've just bought a bunch of 9/16 line for
halyards (current size) from Valley Rope for just over 50 cents a foot. I could
convert one to make sheets. I'll probably use soft shackles to attach it. I'm
absolutely sure it will be fine for any weather I would want to
I recently dropped from 7/16 StaSet to 3/8 VPC on my 35-1.

I think the diameter helps on the hands, and winches well.

The Toronto Boat show is approaching and i'm putting together my list. My jib
sheets have seen better days so I need to replace them.
Am thinking of going with a single sheet with a ring hitch at the clew because
my bowlines tend to snag on the baby stay. Is there any reason NOT to do this??

Nomy genoa sheets are a single, continuous line.
The cow hitch is simply a loop that goes through the clew of the sail.
hope this helps.
