Trim the spinnaker sheet until the clew is just past the shrouds. Hoist the sail until it is all the way up. Over-trim the sheet to break open the stops. Trim the sheet and the guy as required by the wind, starting with the guy first. Drop the jib.
Pole position is variable both fore and aft and up and down.
Sheet position is varied primarily by pulling it in or letting it out. A forward lead is only recommended when running in strong winds to help stabilize the spinnaker. The spinnaker is a versatile sail which can be used when the wind is blowing anywhere from 60 to 180 degrees off the bow. Optimal sailing angles are determined by wind strength. In stronger winds, you won t be able to fly the spinnaker as close to the wind because your boat will be overpowered by the spinna-ker at the closer angles.
