Dennis,
Please send the pix to me. I haven't been able to envision what these soft
shackles look like or how they work.

Just installed the new genoa sheets with soft shackles. Haven't gone out to try
them but they HAVE to work better than bowline knots. They are smooth. I think
they will slide across the forward lower shrouds without hanging up.
I took pics if anyone is interested.

Dennis,I keep my sheets one continuous length, find the middle, push the loop through the clew and tie a luggage knot - slides over the shrouds lickety -split!Now if you change foresails a lot, that's a different story!I use Yale PhD - lovely stuff!

I've been thinking of doing that or splicing in loops.

I have loops at the end of the jib sheets with a soft shackle mating the jib
sheets and clew. Works great!
Better than the hard snap shackle with bowline knots being tossed around by the
clew upon tacking looking to give a concussion to an unfortunate soul on the
foredeck.
