7. Pass the sheets through the shockcord retainers emerging from the foredeck
either side of and adjacent to the mast.
8. Thread the gennaker sheet through the ratchet blocks on the side decks and
tie the two ends together. Ensuring that you pass the sheets aft of the
mainsheet base.
9. Using the gennaker downhaul, and pulling from aft of the halyard block, pull
the gennaker down into the chute.
TOP TIP
Although it may be tempting to leave the gennaker in the chute, it is better if it is left to
dry and folded properly if stored for long periods of time.
