First thing I did was take the spinniker halyard off the mast clip
and move it around the spreader and over to the lifelines - but that
didn't solve the issue.
i think the locking clip came partially loose (maybe it caught on
something) - and from then on it was gradually pushing itself out as
I was furling and unfurling.
Couldn't get the right people at North Sails today - but should talk
to them in the morning

Calypso's spin halyard will tangle if it is not secured
against the mast before un-furling the headsail. I'm not sure
if it contacts the swivel itself or the sail's head.
I use a ATN spin sock which allows the spin to be snuffed
close to the leeward mark. When the spin is hoisted and
flying the sock itself covers the upper swivel and would foul
it if the headsail is roller out while the spin is flying.
I have not yet figured out a way to roll out the headsail
until the spin halyard is all the way aft but I have gotten
faster at clearing the halyard off the sock/spin and back to
the mast.
