downhaul การใช้
- The sail is tuned by adjusting the downhaul and the outhaul.
- Releasing the downhaul tension shifts the center of effort up.
- Downhaul setup offers 3 : 1 purchase.
- The cunningham differs from a typical downhaul in the way that it attaches to the sail.
- He skippered the first victorious 12-metre yacht cunningham downhaul to increase the speed of racing sailboats.
- When sailing dead down wind, it may be helpful to use a downhaul to reef larger sails.
- Mainsail controls permitted by the class are downhaul ( Cunningham ), outhaul and kicking strap ( Vang ).
- Most shape is given to the sail by a very strong downhaul, bending the mast in the luff tube.

- The boat has a 3 : 1 purchase downhaul ( upgradable to 6 : 1 ) to tension the mainsail and an outhaul ( standard 1 : 1, upgradable to 2 : 1 ) to flatten the mainsail along the boom.
- More downhaul tension loosens the upper part of the leech, allowing the top of the sail to twist and " spill " the wind at the gusts and shifting the center of effort ( strictly, the center of pressure ) of the sail down.
- The spinnaker pole may be allowed to raise and lower with the force of the wind, or it may have lines attached to it to raise ( the " topping lift " ) and lower ( the " foreguy " or " downhaul " ) the angle of the pole.
