Qué cubre este vídeo

Leon Schulz utilizes a two-part preventer system to eliminate the risk of accidental jibes while sailing downwind or on a broad reach.0:18 The setup begins at the end of the boom, where two lines are attached and led forward to the gooseneck.0:31 From there, a secondary line connects to the boom-end line, runs forward to a friction-free ring at the bow, and leads back to the cockpit.1:23 The line terminates in a Spinlock clutch, which provides the necessary holding power for high-load situations.2:35 Schulz emphasizes using Dyneema for the preventer line to ensure strength while maintaining a thin profile.4:57 To set the system, the crew releases the mainsheet, attaches the lines while on the coach roof, and tensions the preventer by pulling in the slack before tightening the mainsheet.4:12 Proper routing inside or outside the stanchions prevents chafing against guard rails or genoa sheets.5:16 A properly rigged preventer protects the autopilot and crew from sudden, violent boom movements in heavy seas.3:14
