Dennis,
What was your specific question about the Spinnaker? I am having a senior moment.
Bob,
Yes, the position of the starboard side seconday was the issue. It was considered an unapproved modification. After the class ruling, we moved the secondary back to its original position, but used a pad which was approved by the class.
Again, there are many ways to skin this cat. Simply get the weight on the high side.
Regarding the sail tie question. We tie a block with several wraps around the primary using a North Sails sail tie. North makes the best sail tie in the industry. Just kidding. Pretty low tech huh?
