The Tacker attaches to the clew of the spinnaker and wraps around the furled headsail. A downhaul is also attached to the clew of the spinnaker, which is lead downward to a turning block to bring it aft or is just simply tacked to the deck. This is done so that the spinnaker flies free of the pulpit. With the downhaul led aft, you can control the sail trim quite easily for optimum sail performance.

If you then decide you want caramel, the chocolate is still going to come out of the pipe. We can't put the Chocolate back in the pipe, so someone is going to have to eat it, and it's not going to be us! Your order can't be canceled, returned, or magically changed into caramel, so please order carefully the first time!
