[C320-list] Jib cars

On WindSwept I took the end of the control line that is pulled on to move
the car forward and tied it to the aft end of the car forming one continuous
loop.  That way there is only one line.  The loop can be as long as needed
it in case you want to make adjustments from the helm.

Thin line is what we have for bringing the Garhauer cars back.

I also use the Garhauer system and it works well on moving the cars forward.
However I have not found a satis factory solution on bringing the cars back
when rounding a mark.  I tried to elastic, bungee cord and finally just went
with a thin line, anybody have a solution?
