   How do you use a genoa halyard?

   • Attach the Genoa halyard to the swivel and hoist the sail up. When the sail is hoisted almost all the way to the top, you attach the sail’s tack to a shackle on the top of the drum. Put the halyard on a winch and winch it tight. Now you have to manually roll up the sail around the forestay and tie on the two sheets to the clew of the sail.

   How does the Genoa interact with the mainsail?

   • The interaction between the genoa and the mainsail is more complicated than previously believed. The mainsail reduces air pressure on the lee side of the jib, increasing the angle at which the air meets the luff of the jib, allowing the boat to point higher.

   How does a genoa sail work?

   • Made of lightweight and durable materials such as Dacron or Mylar, the Genoa sail is designed to generate lift and power in light to moderate wind conditions. The curved shape of the sail allows it to utilize the Bernoulli principle, creating lower pressure on the windward side as the wind flows over the surface.

   How do you increase power on a genoa sail?

   • Bear off to add power, and head up to reduce power. Deep sails generate more power, while flat sail shapes generate less power (and less drag). Genoa depth can be adjusted through a variety of controls, including headstay sag, lead position, and sheet trim. A closed leech generates more power. A twisted or open leech spills power.
