This was my first year with a new full batten main, Tides Marine Strong Track, Harken Lazy Jacks, and New England Ropes VPC halyard. I now just release the rope clutch from the cockpit and the main comes flying down. I never have to leave the cockpit and then tidy up everything after attaching my mooring line. Definitely the way to go. This is a very simple system with nothing to really go wrong.
