First, thanks for all the answers so far. We've put the advice on rudder cams, tacking, and motor mounts into action and are loving our Getaway.
1. The main sail was jamming as we raised it last weekend. I recall seeing a post on this topic, but couldn't find it again. Do I have to grease the upper plastic mast section's mail sail track? I leave the mast raised so I'd rather not lower it. But I can lower it if needed to fix this problem.
2. The jam cleat on the main sheet block is a concern to me. I'm afraid that I'll be hit by a gust and not be able to sheet out. Since I have the jam cleat on the main sheet closer to the end (not sure what that cleat is called), what's the purpose of the jam cleat on the block?
3. what are the little blocks on the jib sheet for?
Thanks again,
Jeff
