Too many wraps on the winch,try just two until the jib is almost in then add another wrap for the final trim.

>>I am thinkng about removing the teak platforms that the primary winches sit upon. The reason is that the trimmers seem to have trouble keeping the loaded line from slipping down from the winch and around the teak pad. When it is then loaded and an attempt to "bring it in" is make an override occurs.
