LAZY-BAG: FITTING
- Spread out the lazy-bag on the deck.
- Slide the battens in and close the batten pockets.
- Hank on the lazy-bag until you have the front part about level with the gooseneck.
- Fasten the lazy-bag to the tack with the strap provided.
- Stretch the lazy-bag from the back before you fasten the lazy-jacks.
- Put the mainsail into the lazy-bag.
ADVICE - RECOMMENDATION
- When you are not sailing, slacken the genoa halyard.
- Install the lazy-bag before the mainsail.
- When the sail is unfurled, adjust the halyard tightness.
- Too much tightness may cause furling problems.
- After taking in a reef for the first time mark the halyard position at the clutch (marker
pen or light stitched label)in order to be able to let out the sheet with precision in
subsequent manoeuvres.
