There is a very little annoying cleat on my mast that I swear was put there
for the sole purpose of catching my Genny.  The closest I have come to a
knock down is when I am trying to tack and my Genny gets caught and back
winded in front of the mast ---then BAM the boat goes right over.  I did a
lot of tech. dingy sailing out of RYC in Rochester NY as a kid.  A very good
place to learn about either letting go of the main and quickly coming into
irons or taking a swim in the Genesee river ----YUK.
