I have been reading about Barber Haulers to help with reaching by getting the
clew further outboard and keeping the leech from twisting off. I was thinking
of a snatch block on the toe rail and a line snap shackled to the clew
attachment point to accomplish this. However, I have also seen peop
Hey,
Generally, the whisker pole is used if you are sailing downwind and the
barber hauler if you are reaching.
On my boat, if I am doing a windward / leeward race, we will have genoa and
mainsail in tight for upwind work. Once we round the mark and head downwind
we will run wing and wing with th

If you have a twing for your chute you can also try that instead of a
snatch block. With a snatch block we use the lazy sheet to run through the
block and then switch sheets.

configuring a barber hauler using various things on board.

We use the spinnaker twing also. Opens up the slot nicely.

Thanks for this description of a barber hauler - I will give this a try, as
reaching with the big genoa in lighter air has proven a challenge at times.

First, if you are racing, having the whisker pole on the same side as the
boom may be prohibited in certain jurisdictions.
Barber hauling is a complicated configuration. Basically, you are setting
a triangle using two sheets to change location of the clew of the genoa.

Dennis, thanks for the detailed info. I'm trying to understand picture it
all, but am unclear on which sheet goes through the snatch block on the
rail? I have genoa tracks on the side deck but they are used for the inner
95% jib. The outer genoa uses blocks on the toerail, which I haven't tried

Can I ask Barry, is the barber hauler sheet on the Genoa Lew led to the
snap shackle from outside the lifelines or inside?

Shawn,
It sounds like you don't have a genoa track. Look at this:

The short track by the shrouds is our jib track. That's for our 95% jib.
Further aft is a longer track which is our genoa track for our 125% and
larger sails. If yo
Thanks Dennis, that answered some questions. We were trying to figure out
who or why there were pieces of toe rail there. Partially confusing because
a previous owner also added job track and a different previous owner had a
deck job done but didn't remove them. $75, what a deal..

I rig barberhaulers also. I attach a pulley on the toerail at the sweet spot,
with a soft shackle and string up the top of the pulley to the lower lifeline
so it doesn't flop around. I keep a short 5/16" diameter line for this purpose
with a carabiner in one end and clip that to the upper lifeli
Hi Dennis,
Thanks for the clarification. We do have the aft genoa track similar to
yours, but not the forward track. But since our boat has two foresails in a
solent rig, the inner stay with the 95% jib is sheeted to the genoa track,
and the genoa on the outer stay is sheeted to the toerail with a
This sounds like a simple solution to rig up. If anyone has photos of their
barber hauler or similar setup under use, please share!
Thanks

On our 1990 C&C 34R: When we sail close hauled the foot of the genoa is

track positioned on deck next to the cabin sides. When reaching, the genoa
needs to be trimmed outside the lifelines and sheeted to the toerail f

I use a simple twing setup...easy to attach, easy to trim, cheap. Up to the
point where you need to rig a second sheet outboard of the lifelines, anyhow.
