After a four-day passage from Gloucester to Lunenburg, the crew of the sailboat Paragon replaces a new jib that caused excessive rig vibration and damaged the roller furler.0:36 During the transit, the new sail’s incorrect sheet angle caused it to flog at the top, leading to two bolts backing out of the furler assembly.1:43 The captain repaired the furler underway using a spare bolt.1:58 While anchored in Lunenburg, the crew removes the problematic sail and reinstalls an older, larger jib to improve performance for the upcoming leg toward Newfoundland.2:07 The process involves securing the head and tack shackles with stainless steel seizing wire to prevent the hardware from vibrating loose or falling overboard.9:07 The crew also discusses the importance of checking for twists in the luff before hoisting the sail.7:59 Proper sail tension remains a challenge due to the boat's specific rig configuration, which does not accommodate the new jib's dimensions.3:18
