I often go jib only when shorthanded. You lose a little point on the 27-3 but
that's all.

Subject: Stus-List sailing under jib alone
All,
Earlier this week I went out for a lazy sail after work. Unfurled the jib in
10 knots of wind and decided I was too lazy to remove the main cover and hoist
the main.
I've read that sailing under only jib is bad because it places an uneven load
on the rigging. Seems to me that the load is minimal in light air and the
total load is a lot less under one sail.
Thoughts?
