I have a spinnaker for my wave, which is well worthwhile. I am getting a traveller to better head upwind/optimize speed, and will probably get a jib at the same time. I am concerned about the nonfurling wave jib interfering with the launching and operation of the spinnaker; I know it can be launched between the jib and the halyard-has anyone done it, and is the jib worthwhile?

Check out my posting for my (near) complete jib kit w/ a yellow jib (great shape) in the for sale section if you do decide to go for a jib!

why isn't your yellow jib on your wave?
