[C320-list] Lazy Jack vs. Dutchman

[Jack McDonough]

David:

You will find that there are two kinds of people -- those who love the 
Dutchman system and those who hate it. I hated it. I now have a stack pack 
(no sail ties, no sail cover to wrestle with) with lazy jacks -- plus a 
TidesTrack, which is far superior to the main track in the mast that came 
with the boat and which constantly jammed the mainsail's slugs in the gate. 
Stack pack, lazy jacks, TidesTrack. Love 'em all.

Stand by now to hear from those who love the Dutchman. They're a fervent 
bunch.
