Folding spinnakers

   Roll not fold, then stuff it in a bag.....I usually go commando. It's all wrinkled.

	I'm a convert to folding. But at home once dry, not in the dinghy park where it gets a good stuffing.

	I'll always fold a kite but I'd never dream of ironing any clothes (well, maybe a white shirt for work). A kite left in the chute makes such a lovely mouse nest, and if you're taking it out its so much less hassle to store if you've folded it, plus the more its crumpled up the quicker that nice crisp finish is going to go.

	I didn't believe anyone did this but apparently some do! So fess up, are you a folder or a bag stuffer? and why? Edited by piglet - 11 Jan 16 at 10:54pm
