I took my first sailing lesson a couple of years ago, set off on an extended voyage one year ago. Decided to take on the Atlantic last November and desperately wanted/needed to fly the asymmetric that came with the boat, but don't know how. I've watched numerous videos but this is the only one that's explained it in such detail that I will now fly the chute the next opportunity. Thanks guys.

We loved the tweaked and use of ratchet block for the sock downhaul. Will incorporate, thanks!

That sock & ratchet block!! OMG !! This could be a real game changer for our boat! Both for basic safety and racing!

One point worth mentioning for boats that don't have a pole. Easing the tack line is a great way to get the spinnaker out of the shadow of the main.

Thanks. Block on the sock line is a great move.
