I fold the main on the finger pier...

main is full battened, 960 sq ft. and around 170 lbs. I zip up the Stack Pack and crane it onto the finger pier using main halyard and mizzen staysail halyard. Once on the finger pier (which I have hosed off in advance, or put plastic tarp down it it is ugly), pull the battens, flake, and brick. No jib, so no problem. Mizzen is only 215 sq ft. I do it the same way but it is far easier.
