[C320-list] Attaching jib sheets

[Orlando.Duran at AveryDennison.com]

I get both ends together, go to the middle, slip it thru the clew then slide the ends thru that loop....for the whisker pole, I have a tied a spectra line in a loop....a small bowline on the Spectra is the only knot or knuckle...

OD,

So I have to ask. Maybe this is a dumb questions but what kind of knot do 
you use on the clue? Obviously, if the sheet is continuous and passed thru 
the clue without a knot you could never tighten the sheet. Correct? Unless 
your using 2 sheets and loop them thru from each direction. But then where 
would you tie them off?

What I did on cl 2 and cl 3 was to get the jib/genoa sheets in one 
continuous length then simply pass it thru itself  at the clew...if you use 
a whisker pole for off-wind, then use a light spectra line at the clew (use 
a bowline there) to attach the pole end...again, use some spectra/dyneema 
sheets--go down a size or even 2...

How are people attaching jib sheets to the jib?  I've been using a bowline;
but, don't like it as it tends to catch on the shrouds on a tack.  I'm
thinking about an anchor bend (fisherman's bend) and seizing the bitter end
to the working part.  Any better ideas?
