Use shock cord to hold Lazy Jacks open
so Battcars and battens will not catch on
them. This will also help stop slapping of
Lazy Jacks on sail.
Attach one end to lower spreader tips and
the other to Lazy Jacks.
Make sure shockcord is long enough so
boom can swing out all the way without
damaging spreaders.
