[Public-List] Loose-footed mainsail

[Hugh McCormack]

Just curious but what are the advantages of a loose-footed mainsail?

 

Cheers,

 

Hugh
 
> The "Emotional Rescue #303, has a sliding track on the mast for the the gooseneck and a boom with the usual groove for the mainsail foot bolt rope. We are ordering a new mainsail and all of the sailmakers interviewed are proposing a loose-footed mainsail and a cunningham.
