Re: Stus-List A halyard mess
The car on the track, yes. So basically your halyard only has to be half length Gand stays out of the sun. The rest of the. Halyard is detached when you get the main pard hooked on. The car ratchets along the track so it stays in place with the right tension. It's a very nifty system. I'm looking forward to installing it on Masquerade. Anagdy.

Re: Stus-List A halyard mess
Andrew, I think it is a great idea, but I cannot see how that would work. Do you attach the end of the halyard to the car on the rail? Jeremy, I backtrack the jib halyard back to the mast and hang the bitter end (coiled) on the halyard, just below where it exists the mast (with a prusik knot). Then I use a few pieces of Velcro to keep it neat. This way the tail end of the halyard is under the main sail cover, when at the dock (no UV damage). Also, the line stays dry so there is no green algae/mold.

Re: Stus-List A halyard mess
Antal makes something called a halyard slider system that consists of a car with a hook on it that runs on a mast mounted track. You splice a loop in the end of the halyard. And pull the jib up with a light tail and then disconnect the tail. No messy halyard to coil at all. I'm installing it on my boat for the furling headsail. That halyard never gets touched once the sail is up anyway. http://www.antal.it/eng/622-422_en A friend and occasional crewmember is the antal guy in the US. I will put you in touch if you like.
