Dimensions - Sailmakers's Instructions

Luff length - asymmetric spinnaker

Note offset H at the top and offset D at the bottom. When using system 

for asymmetric spinnakers, D represents the attachment point to the tack 

swivel terminal.  

Luff length - code zero 

Note offset H at the top and offset E at the bottom representing the 

attachment points for the sail cloth.

Code zero luff cable

The Reflex torsion cable is designed for use with asymmetric sails and 

transmits torque at lower halyard loads. When using the Reflex torsion 

cable with a code zero sail, make sure there is an additional rope to handle 

tension. Alternatively, use a tension receiving rope that is torsionally 

resistant and splice it to the thimble in the head swivel and the fixed tack 

terminal. This alternate method will require more tension to furl, making 

furling more difficult.
I

MPORTANT! When using a 2:1 tack line, remember that it is pulling 

against the halyard. Downsize the diameter of the 2:1 tack line so  

that it does not overpower the stretch of the halyard.
