Good point.

Neat coils without figure-8s are the mother of many tangles.That, and I would always flake the line out before lowering.

The headboard is the metal plates that reinforce the head of the sail...

... or exactly what you said.

I used the same line. It must be the 90s, loaded upon raising, but loose on lowering.

Yup, try towing it for a few minutes.

More details, pleae. My last boat had a 2:1 halyard.

Does the headboard block swivel? It should not, it should be fixed fore-aft.

What type line?
