@ Zeester & Peter-Blake,
Do you put an "acht-knoop" (eight-knot) in your gennakersheet endings ???

I never put a eight nut in a spinaker sheet so i can have it slipped all the way wenn nesesery.
I do make a eight nut in every halyard.

It is not common (done) to have an knot at in genacker or spinacker sheets. Safety rule.

Gregor,
How do you prevent the lazy sheet to slip out the block?

@Ron: make sure they are long enough. Sorry, in Dutch. Als de genacker of spinaker wind vangt zodanig dat de boot plat dreigt te gaan, dan moet alles los, of die lap in het water terecht komt, dan wil je dat er geen kracht meer op de schoten staat. Blijft dat er wel, dan zijn de gevolgen vele malen erger. Ik heb dit geleerd tijdens/door wedstrijdzeilen. Het heeft puur met veiligheid te maken.
In de genua, fok, grootzeil e.d. leg je/ik wel een knoop. Wel een soort 8, omdat de 8-knoop makkelijk losgaat. Groet, Gregor |

In addition to the discussion of NOT putting any knot in a genaker sheet: do not put a knot in your
genaker halyard either!!!!!It can cost you a mast if your halyard cannot slip out in a heavy gust.

Why do you need a pair of footrailcllips for genneker sheet block ? There's a stainless steel ring made for this weld on pullpit leg on both sides.
I always put an eight knot on my sheets. The spinnaker sheet are twice the length of the yacht. So if I need to release the sheet I have far enough length to 'deflate' the sail and pull the sheet back when situation is in control.
