Storm Sails
Storm sails or heavy air working jibs are necessary when sailing offshore where it is not possible to easily

reach safe harbor.
These sails will generally require pendants to ensure that halyard swivel is properly positioned at top of

headstay. See page 26.
Remember that heavy air working jibs and storm jibs may be reefed and furled like any other sail.

Add Line to Drum Assembly
Run line into drum assembly between guard posts and out hole in lower plate of spool. Exit opening in drum

assembly as shown below. Tie a small overhand knot and pull it up tightly against spool.
IMPORTANT! Do not run line through plastic opening in drum assembly.
