Cruising Guide to Trinidad, Tobago & Barbados

Without Doyle's StackPack mainsail furling system, lowering the main often goes like this: the sail is flogging itself into early retirement, you've got a half-dozen sail ties clam ped between your teeth, the channel makes a jog to the port but the helmsperson doesn't, and your 5-year-old finally gets to find out if the boathook floats. StackPack, with its unique integral sail cover, allows the main to put itself away. In seconds, you're ready to zip it up, relax in the cockpit, and enjoy the show put on by the crews who don't have a StackPack.
