Dave,
I think the size of the soft shackle (if you’re just using one) may be part of
the issue. Soft shackles are made from high modulus fibers, usually either
Dyneema or Spectra

I went with doing eye splices on the sheets and using soft shackle. No more hang ups on the rigging or baby stay since.Tom BuscagliaS/V Alera 1990 C 37+/40Vashon WAP 206.463.9200C 305.409.3660On Jun 16, 2022, at 10:32 AM, David Knecht via CnC-List wrote:What have people found to be the best

Dave,
I am curious how your soft shackle is installed and why that hasn't solved
your problem. After attach
The sheets have loops spliced into the ends and the soft shackle just goes
through the two loops and attaches to itself. I have no problem with my 100%
genoa, but my 145 hangs up often. Do you have protective tubes around your
shrouds or bare rod? Dave
