[Rhodes22-list] Does anyone use the interior jib leads while on a beat?

Jeff,

Short answer:  rarely.  If you pull your boom tight towards the center of
the boat you'll need to use the interior leads if you want the wind to hit
your Genoa at the same angle that it's hitting your mainsail.

If you check the archives for Test (Excel Spreadsheet) on 9-7-17 at 6:54,
you'll see a post from me about sailing into the wind.  Although accurate,
the results were extremely lucky.  The sailing conditions just happened to
match up with how I had the sails and everything else set.
