Tried it on a Marblehead, in very light airs it worked too efficiently and the boat would suddenly sail backwards when the elastic was stronger than the wind -

I wouldn't think there is a problem with putting some elastic on the main but I expect to be shot down -
Following a very light air day it occurred to me that a system to fully sheet out the main sail would be jolly useful but I wonder if the rules allow such a thing. Rule C.5.4 (c) States:- Except where achieved by mechanical systems, automated control of rig and/or sails and automated steering and/or navigation are prohibited. Would a shock cord system that kept the main sheet under tension be allowed I wonder? Cheers Trevor
