Re: Stus-List Shackle for Genoa Sheets?

[Ken Heaton via CnC-List]

I don't think a metal shackle ‎on the jib clew is a good idea. Think about how much damage that can do when the sail is flogging, damage to the boat or the crew. A soft shackle would work though.

Listers, Does anyone use a shackle for their genoa sheets instead of a knot? If so, how big? What type? What kind of breaking strength?  All the best, Edd Edd M.
