spinnaker set up

Post by Dave High »

Has anyone tried to use a spinnaker turtle bag strapped to pulpit in front of forestay for storage. launching and retrieval when under sail? I am thinking of setting up that way and using a downhaul passing through an eye in the centre of the bottom of the turtle bag to help recovery. Anyone with any experience of this type of set up?
