One problem is the twin bowlines, that attach the sheets to the clew of the jib, catch on the shrouds.
I would not like to be near that thing when it flogs around....
then I saw the softshackle idea which should help to reduce the clutter at the jib clew.
This vid below tells you how to make one
That's a great idea. Think I might try to do this on my boat.
