[Rhodes22-list] short inhaul line?

[ben]

I'm skeptical that your line shrunk a couple of feet.  It shouldn't be any
harder on the genny then nucleating the sheets and furling line and manually
turning the drum.  Not sure about the main, but I doubt you need to replace
the line, unless it's damaged.

maybe I just need to go super tight furl on the jib.
I did have a knot in the end of the rope.
what about the Main inhaul?
