Pumping when beating with the staysail up. Stops it completely.

Anybody have runners on their boat... how to best use?
I use mine when the staysail is set.

I tighten the windward backstay to tighten the genoa luff
Agree .... also slack off the forestay when tightening the headstay
Fractional or masthead rig?
I think if you bend the mast forward
Actually, cutter rig.
I really like having them, and use them a lot...
Thanks Jon... you and SG gave me a bit of a picture.
