The newest edition of Sn'W illustrates a 1:2 spinnaker halyard 'pump' and describes the use of take-up reels for the spinnaker sheets.

As it would pertain to Scot's that compete in sanctioned Class regattas:

A) Refering to S-III-i of The By-laws, is this set-up a permitted modification ?

B) Refering to S-III-j of The By-laws and CMR #51, are take-up reels on the spinnaker sheets a permitted modification ?

As always, thank you for the great articles in Scots n' Water.

Another reason we have such a wonderful Association.

This is a topic which really needs input from the Cheif Measurer. I question the legallity of the 1:2 spin' halyard pump and the take up reels on the spinnaker sheets for class sanctioned events. The spinnaker pump as mentioned by Hot Wheels in another post indicated it's not legal.
