Luke - I use the inner track for my light #1. it's a bit of a nuisance since the car is not easily adjustable like the primary jib cars. I still like it and believe it gives us a little more point.
to change jib cars to the primary track, either for the same sail or a headsail change, just run a second sheet (IE a changing sheet) through the new car and back to your secondary winch. If you don't have secondaries, let go of the primary and grind in on new sheet as quick as you can. If the main is getting backwinded too much it's a sign that the inside track shouldn't be used. If you're overpowered or at the wind limits of the sail is also a sign to change sails & track. Hope that helps. > On December 12, 2018 at 6:49 PM Luke Wolbrink via CnC-List > <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > > Hello All, > > I recently purchased a new to me 35-3 and an very excited for the coming > spring and am grateful to this board.
