I have an E29T. It is a double spreader rig. The lower spreaders are becoming a nuisance. After sailing in a good breeze, 15+ knots, for a few hours the spreader tips fall to a lower position on the shrouds. Before I go out again I use a line and a halyard to pull the tips back up so that the spreader base is correctly centered in the mast socket/mount.
I am inclined to put something on the shrouds to keep the tips up, but do not want to do something that may cause problems in the future.
I keep the rig fairly tight so that in the high teens the leeward side shrouds are barely loose.
Any ideas about what is allowing this, or a good solution?
