RS100 manual  4.6 Rigging the gennaker:
"4. Find the middle of the gennaker sheet,
5. Pass the middle of the sheet through the metal eye,
6. Pass the rest of the gennaker sheet through the loop
8. ... tie the two ends together"
 
I do it different: i tie both ends to that gennaker eye:
 
 
By doing that i create a nice  "endless sheet" without a knot.

I prefer the knot in the boat as well. Provides you something to tie the mainsheet to and gives you a big lump to throw to the other side of the boat before a jibe, just to make sure that everything is at hand if it all starts going tits up.

Faster and more efficient upwind and tight reaching than any other single handed dinghy? Really?

er ....  sorry only one  responce possible - just bring it on !  And I'm not just saying this on behalf of just Blaze and Halo's .... obviously I would ....but it would be a rather crowded room with others challenging  this claim surely.

I would imagine that the comparison was to the Laser, Finn and OK, all big in Denmark.
