Funny that I'd read the post and answers without watching the video. We're relative newbies and might or might not have messed up a lazy jack on an early charter after lessons. frown

Now that I've seen the video that seems like overkill. We started loosening but not releasing the lazy jack lines to give a little extra play for the battens. We also let out the main sheet and have a little more patience. Much less stress than the early days. It's a two person job with lots of hand signals but so far so good.
