I had a class chute cut to an asym also - they will not go very high. But I have not figured out a great way to tack it to the bow. I have a strop about a foot long that I attach to the lower turnbuckle on the forestay. It has a block attached to it that the tack line runs through. This works ok but it tends to pull back quite a bit - I think I need to shorten the strop. How do other people tack the asym down?
