Fixed mainsheet block. I had the jaws upside down. I rigged the cunningham and boomvang, and raised the jib using the original jib halyard. It was better. I'll use the light halyard with the spinnaker. Still need to figure out how that's going to go. Plan to remove the raised block on starboard side. The angle for the halyards is wrong.

When I arrived there was no wind and between the time I started sailing, and got out of the bay, the wind had freshened to SW 15 Kts.

This was the first time I had both sails up. I was over-powered and ended up cracking off the wind and rolling up the jib. I didn't get a tight roll so the top of the jib was thrashing about. So far, I'm not sold on the roller system. Still, early in the game. Practice makes perfect.
